Bertha; our condolences and great memories of Roy to cherish. He was a good friend and colleague. Made an impact on my life, and I always appreciated his support and friendship at work. Good sense of humor and so family focused...knowing him was an honor.

Mr Wiley as we called him was our neighbour for many years. He was always so kind and helpful to my kids and I. I used to enjoy watching him tinkle in his yard to see what he’d do next and you know it always looked great. Sending hugs to Hertha and the family.
