I went to high school with ElRoy, San Angelo HS class of 1958. Not close but ran with him some. If anyone wants ElRoy stories, particularly when he was in USMC, I will contact the last guy I know (a good friend) who served with him. He has made me laugh for years with ElRoy stories and will ask him to send them along to post for those who knew him later.
I didn’t know he was from so close to home. I’m in Odessa.
