I was saddened to read of Roy''s passing. I am a TSS for Beacon Light and had the pleasure of working with him at Warren High and Warren Elementary Center. He was such a caring individual; he showed genuine concern for the clients he worked with. I will always remember Roy as a big man with a big heart. I will also picture him sitting in a small chair designed for an elementary student! Roy left a positive influence on the lives of those children he worked with. My thoughts and prayers are with you all as you mourn your loss.
