ABEC Robert "Bobby" Michael Paul Roy, USN
I am sorry I can’t post music this weekend.
We have a PGR ride early on Monday, and we
have been checking and double checking on times,
kickstands up, flag lines, and so forth.
We lost this brave young man:
PACE, Fla. — Bobby Roy, 33, of Florida, was unexpectedly taken from us on Sunday, April 28, in Pace, Fla., where he was stationed.
Bobby was born on Sept. 17, 1979, in Lewiston, and was a graduate of Lisbon High School, Class of 1997. Bobby was a chief petty officer and proud to serve his country for almost 16 years in the United States Navy.
Bobby pledged to serve God and his country from an early age. He grew up participating in the Sea Cadets Corps program at the NAS in Brunswick. After graduating from high school, he officially joined the Navy and was stationed to the newest aircraft carrier at the time, CVN 75 Harry S. Truman. During his tenure on the Truman, he was temporarily placed on CVN-71 Theodore Roosevelt to assist in the Kosovo conflict. During his career in the Navy, he has been stationed at Brunswick Naval Air Base, CVN 69 Dwight D. Eisenhower, CVN 77 George H.W. Bush, CVN 70 Carl Vinson and most recently, NAS Whiting Field, outside of Pensacola, Fla
It will be our first motorcycle escort,(by that I mean
not riding in cars)
I will be riding with Miriam in the sidecar of her Ruskie bike.
It's a good thing that you're doing.
We'll see you next week.
Oh, Sis...I am SO sorry to hear this sad news! I know that you all will do a wonderful job...just be careful on that crazy bike! :)
((((hugs))))
