Alan Lester wrote a sympathy message

“I first met Roy in 1977 in a meeting. I later worked with him for many years. He was a true gentleman. We phoned each other often after we both retired - discussing the Green Bay Packers, our families, and occasionally about business. He was a man of integrity and honor and I consider him a true friend. I offer you my deepest sympathy for your loss. Alan Lester”
