Roy’s career was at Kirby Ford Sales where he made life long friends. Away from work, he and his wife introduced their children, then grandchildren and great grandchildren to the joy of camping. Together they spent several weeks each year doing primitive camping and creating moments to never be forgotten. What started out as a small single campsite grew into a group of thirty people on eight sites. Roy was a strong Christian man serving at Mt. Zion Missionary Baptist Church, as a deacon for some seventy years. Roy was preceded in death by his wife, Opal, sisters Lily Mae Chase and Brenda Steele, and brother, Artie Inman.
