My prayers and condolences to the family.
Dear Jonathan, Kelly and Atley, My deepest sympathy goes out to you and your family. I am going to miss Roy being at the lake. I always felt safe when he was at home there. I had the pleasure of talking to him about a month ago. He was smiling and had fished a tournament. I am happy to remember him that way. I know he and Deborah had a wonderful reunion in Heaven and neither will suffer anymore. And that leaves the rest of us missing them terribly. Sincerely thinking of you all.
Elliot Family, Please except my sincere sympathy during this sad time. Roy was a good man and he loved to fish. I enjoyed his friendship for years as a fisherman myself and summertime neighbor at Fontana. Prayers for the family.
This was truly a wonderful man, he loved his boat and fishing tournaments with his best pal Atley. I will always have our lake time with him Debra and my girl. Our hearts are broken and will always have a empty space for these two. Rest dear friend
Love
Rhonda,Bob and Brooke McElrath
