"Roy always had a wave and a smiling 'Hello Tom' when he would visit the post office to pick up his mail. Our actual conversations were few, but his kindness was plenty. It has been a pleasure to meet Lisa. She has a simple, quiet milk of human kindness that she shares in her visits to the post office. May Roy be blessed with eternal life, and may Lisa be blessed with the same kindness she shares with others. "
In loving memory of
Roy D. Ward

"Dearest Sweet Lisa, what a wonderful daughter, what a Gift you have been to your dad during these difficult times. Roy left the Earth knowing he was loved deeply, cared for devotedly, and in the best possible hands - those of his little girl and granddaughters. He could ask for nothing more, of this I am quite certain; you gave All, allowing him to peacefully transition into his next adventure. You are greatly appreciated, and loved. Sending you Love and Healing on the winds that caress your tears."
