He and his brother purchased the farm in 1945. Roy was united in marriage to Eleanor Gross on February 6, 1946, at the Sacred Heart Rectory. Farming was Roy's passion and along with Eleanor they farmed and raised their family in the Lancer District. He loved to check the fields and harvest was always a special time of year. In his spare time he enjoyed playing cards making sausage, playing his harmonica, singing, and dancing. He loved spending time with his grandchildren and knew how to play with them. Roy was proud of his Hardpar Tractor and spoke about it often and was always interested in operating any new equipment that was purchased. Roy will be sadly missed but fondly remembered by his family and friends. In his memory, memorial donation may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
