Royce was a loving husband, father, and grandfather. His family and church family were so important to him. Royce loved to serve his church in any capacity that was needed. He was a kind and generous man, who would do anything for anyone.
He was a proud member of the National Rifle Association (NRA), a volunteer firefighter and very talented woodworker. He enjoyed reading western books on his kindle and watching tv with his wife, Kathy. Royce had a quick witty sense of humor and like to make others laugh.
