Wow! Roy was 1 year older than me. He was too young to leave. This board will noticeably suffer after loosing Roy. He had a knack for posting just the right thing at just the right time. I genuinely liked him, although we only knew one another through the Campfire. I will definitely pray for Roy and for his grieving family.

It's hard to accept.

Godspeed Roy. Prayers for his family

if a man speaks, and there isn't a woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?

Roy was one of the good guys. Like so many others here I never met him personally just through email and private messages.
I bought so many knives from him that he finally just started emailing me when he was going to sell one. He really wasn't my wife's favorite person. smile

You will be missed Roy.

Thanks for the notification. He was too young but death is the only thing we can be sure of. Sorry to hear it for him and his family. Prayers offered.

Too young, far too young. I hate to see it. Blessing to the family.

I've conversed with Roy on and off over the past 6 yrs or so. Mostly at Optics Talk. This is just so unexpected. He's going to be missed for sure. To quote RifleDude(Ted)"Damn,this hurts!".

May God comfort all of those concerned.

Spent a lot of time thinking about the above today (who would have believed it.....SH provoking deep thought).

I've met/travelled/hunted with some fine folks from the CF. If you'd have said that I'd have driven to NY to pick up a crazy Schenectady cop that I'd never met, then drive to Pulaski, VA to meet up with three other dudes I'd never met to continue driving to TN to kill pigs with a bunch of guys I'd never met......I'd have called you crazy.

As much bullchit arguing as we do here, I'd still hunt with most that I disagree with.

Again....RIP Roy. I regret that I never made the effort to meet that retired Motor from NJ.

I've only just read this terrible news and I am genuinely shocked. 57 is way too young to go..

Roy always struck me as a really decent person and my thoughts and condolences are with his family and friends at this very sad time...
