Roy was born on November 18, 1927 in Plainfield, Illinois. He enlisted in the Navy in November 1945 where he attended basic training in San Diego, California. He served on the USS Comstock and the USS Sphinx. He was honorably discharged on October 11, 1947. The very same day he and his wife Charlotte, of 69 years, eloped to Lake Tahoe.

They made their first home in Long Beach, California where he and Charlotte worked at the phone company. Their first child, Janet, was in born in 1949. Then, moving to Placerville he worked for Standard Oil and their second child, Charlie, was born in 1954. They returned to Long Beach in 1958 to assist Roy's mother in a business venture. Finally, they moved to Fallbrook in 1961 where they purchased their first grove. They continued to farm full time for 55 years, until January of 2016.

Roy had three primary loves in his life, his Lord Jesus, his wife Charlotte and farming. He was given the gift of enjoying all of these for many fruitful years.

Roy is survived by his wife Charlotte, his daughter Janet and (Roger) Scalice, his son Charlie and (Gail), 7 grandchildren and 17 great grandchildren .
