I worked with Roy with his VA benefits claim when I was the Veterans Service Officer in Russell County (1994 -2005).В He never asked for any more than he felt was his due.В He was one of my favorite veterans to work with.В I saw him at Walmart a couple of years ago and I could tell his heath was worsening.В I will always remember his goodness and his sense ofВ humor.В R.I.P. my friend.В В

I enjoyed our times while serving in the Navy Seabee unit.В

I am saddened by the death of Roy, or Billy a I knew him. We both grew-up around Railroad Street in Phenix City. Billy was a friend. I appreciate his military service, and hope his life was joyful. My best wishes to his family and especially his sister, Deloris, and brother, Dale....Bill Blau, Evans/Augusta, GA
