The quiet man.
Roy was my classmate in the University of South Carolina NROTC program, Class of 1968. I remember him as a quiet, friendly young man. Very polite to everyone. Not the typical Marine candidate. I learned of his tragic death several years after I returned from Vietnam. I think of Roy and many other friends named on the Wall every day. Rest in peace, my friend. You did your duty. Semper Fi.

honoring you.....
"The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotions and spends himself in a great worthy cause; who at the best, knows in the end triumph of high achievement and, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while caring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold, timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat." Theodore Roosevelt

Thank you and Semper Fidelis
Roy was one year ahead of me in NROTC at the University of South Carolina. We had both selected to serve in the Marine Corps and he was my mentor. I was devastated to hear of his death in Vietnam. He has been in my thoughts all of these years and especially on Memorial Day. Rest In Peace and thank you.
