Roy Willard Tolbert Obituary
We are sad to announce that on April 11, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Roy Willard Tolbert of Springfield, Missouri. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Roy Willard Tolbert to show support.
In the soft embrace of remembrance, we recall the profound impact Roy Willard had on those he encountered along his journey. Though Roy Willard may have slipped beyond the veil of mortality, his essence lingers like a faint fragrance in the air, a lingering reminder of the beauty and complexity of the human experience.
He was predeceased by: his parents, Roy Willard Tolbert and Bonnie Frances Tolbert (Rutherford); and his wife Eva Lynda Brigance. He is survived by: his daughters, Angela Rochelle Cunningham (James) and Cynthia Tolbert Lipscomb (Justin); his grandchildren, James Roy Cunningham, Carlie Anne Elizabeth Cunningham and Kathryn Elizabeth Lipscomb; and his sisters, Renee Knipmeyer (Dean), Charlotte Daubin (Steve) and Barbara Glidewell. He is also survived by many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests memorial donations be made to Saint Jude's Children's Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee.
