  3. Roy was a good brother. We were very close growing up although he liked to lock me in closets. I guess that’s why I have a touch of claustrophobia.
    We and Shirley had some good times over the years. Thank you both for being such a huge part in my son’s lives. Love & Prayers are with you daily Shirley!
