Born 21 November, 1937 in Plainview, Texas, Roy Gayle Berry departed this world on 10 April, 2017 in Murphy, Texas. He is survived by his loving wife of fifty-eight years, Patsy Ann Berry, sons Kelly and Tracey, daughter-in-law Cindy Berry, and grandson Ryan Berry, all of Murphy, Texas.
Roy lived the majority of his seventy-nine years in Fort Worth, Texas, where he moved after a brief stint in the United States Air Force in the 1950s, and had an almost forty year career in the defense industry at General Dynamics/Lockheed Martin. He and Pat retired to Murphy in late 1999 to be near family. In addition to being a loving and loyal husband, family man, and provider, Roy loved spending time with family, staying fit, playing golf, reading detective fiction, and above all, making and repairing things with his talented hands. He is already missed.
A Graveside service will be held on Wednesday, April 26th at 11am at the DFW National Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that mourners please make a small donation to the charity of their choice.
