Our beloved Roy valued family and friends above all. He was a compassionate and generous person who always took care of everyone's needs. He loved spending time cooking, grilling and boiling seafood for his family. Roy took great interest in all sports throughout his life, especially playing golf, shooting pool and bowling. He also enjoyed watching his grandchildren play sports almost as much as watching the Saints and LSU.
