IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Aug 20, 1956 — May 3, 2024
Roy, affectionately known as 'Uncle Lee', was born in Mobile, Alabama. At the age of 11, he moved to Brooklyn, New York, along with his mother and siblings. After completing his high school education, Roy enlisted in the US Army. During his military service, he underwent basic training and was subsequently deployed overseas, spending several years in Germany. His dedication and commitment earned him an Honorable Discharge. Upon returning to Brooklyn, Roy made it his home for the next three decades.
In 2004, Roy returned to celebrate his mother's homegoing and it was during this visit he decided to move back to his birthplace, and in early 2005, he settled in Mobile once again.
Roy found meaningful employment at Mobile Infirmary Medical Center later that year. He loved his work and was a dependable and dedicated employee. Roy was entrusted to train individually with special needs, helping them acquire essential skills and work ethic for employment. When the Covid-19 Pandemic struck and hospitals were overwhelmed, 'Uncle Lee' was on the job! He was a valuable member of the team, loved and respected by his co-workers. Although the job was demanding at times, he enjoyed the challenge.
Retiring in 2021, Roy's loyalty and years of dedication were celebrated with a beautiful retirement party attended by his manager, supervisors, co-workers, friends, and family—a memory always cherished.
Roy was a very generous person who loved his family dearly. He delighted in interacting with and talking with his nieces and nephews.
"A simple man, a simple life, simply love one another" Isn't that's how Jesus taught us to live?" It's not complicated if we keep it simple.:
'Uncle Lee' may be gone from our physical presence, but the love and memories will remain in our hearts forever. See you later 'Uncle Lee.'
We love you!
