Roy will always have a special place in my heart. I am so thankful I was able to see him again, even if it was just a short visit when he was at work in CVS a few weeks ago. I was hoping to visit with him and Darlene again but I guess God had other plans. Darlene, I love you and am here for you anytime you want to talk. Linda Smith
