My mother and I have been knowing Royce ( Rooster) forever. Although we have not seen him for many years we recently reconected with him through facebook. It was tragic and shocking, to hear of his passing. He was always a kind and loving person, and all my memories of him were fond. I would like to express my condolences to his family and many friends we lost a wonderful person but heaven gained a wonderful angel. RIP dear friend till we meet again !!
