Roy STILL is a good and best friend. He has passed this life .. but his Spirit Life remains with me.
Roy was an EXCELLENT residential contractor. He could do EVERYTHING.
He did a lot of work on my home in Naples .. and my home in Canandaigua.
And ... we became Old Clock Guys .. and collected old, mechanical clocks.
He will always remain a "Friend" in my memory.

We were so saddened to hear of Roy’s passing. He definitely fought the good fight. I was grateful to have had the chance to speak with him in the latter part of the summer, he was kind enough to keep us updated on his health. He was a talented guy, who did work for us and it was always top notch. Always responded in his “Roy kind of way”. Sending our sincerest condolences to Troy and Roy’s many good friends. May he rest in peace.
