Our friendship with Roy McDermott spans many years, beginning as back-to-back neighbors when our children were grade school age and continued through their high school & college years. We enjoyed many summer vacations together at Kentucky Lake (where Roy was in charge of "cleanup") as well as boating on nearby lakes and rivers. We have enjoyed many social activities with them; and when our lives took us to differing locales, we maintained friendships. Our sincere condolences to Roy's special family. We know he will be missed. We trust your family, your friends, and your faith will sustain you in the days ahead. God bless.

Our lives have yet another void of a good friend in Roy McDermott. We were blessed to have Roy and Elaine as back-to-back neighbors while our children were in grade school. The friendship continued through their high school and college years especially on family vacations to Kentucky Lake & river destinations. Roy was in charge of "clean-up" in our Kentucky Lake cabins. Many dinners with the McDermotts yield good memories for us. As we have aged and our lives placed us in differing locales, we maintained a friendship through phone calls and holiday cards. Our sincere condolences to Elaine, Brian and Annette and their families on your monumental loss. We trust your family, your friends and your faith will sustain you in the days ahead. God bless.
