January 5, 1962 – November 22, 2012
Roy passed away suddenly in Victoria at his residence at the age of 50. He is survived by his mother, Freda; his sister, Maureen (Jim) Lambier; nieces, Danielle and Justine; nephew, Joshua; all of Dundas, Ontario. He is also survived by his loving dog, Teiko and his roommate, Huddy Huddy of Victoria. He will be greatly missed by all his family and friends.
Roy was raised in Penetanguishene, Ontario and moved to Victoria in the early 1990’s. He loved working with boats and spending time on the water with friends. He loved all animals and volunteered regularly at the SPCA. Roy was a private person, but those who were a part of his life were truly blessed to have known him.
A Memorial Service will be held at 2:00 pm on Saturday, December 1, 2012 at McCall Bros. Floral Chapel, Johnson and Vancouver Streets with a reception to follow at Roy’s home. Donations to the SPCA kindly appreciated. Condolences may be offered to the family below.

I grew up with Roy in Penetang and it has been a very long time since I last saw him. Roy was always friendly and kind. My condolences to all of you.
I am deeply sorry for your family’s loss. Roy was a great man and had a very outgoing laugh. I never met him personally but have talked on the phone with him for about 15 years. It is a big loss to those that have known him.

It has been years since I last saw Roy, but I grew up with him and the one thing that always sticks out in my memory of Roy was his smile and his laugh.
To Roy’s Mum and his family please accept my condolences
Terribly sad today thinking of Roy. I will always remember his great sense of humour, kindness and loyalty. So many memories of a very good hearted man.

Dear Maureen and Freda,
Roy was a stand up guy and always had a smile on his face when we greeted each other. My thoughts and prayers are with both of you and your families.
My deepest condolences goes out to Roy’s family.
Having spoken to Roy over the phone many, many times over the years at work, he was always fun to talk to & had a good sense of humour – I will miss his joking around & laughter the most.
Now who’s going to call me Grasshopper?! You will be missed Roy….
