My step father was a wonderful man. A little over a year ago my mother got a letter in the mail asking her out, and it was from this wonderful gentleman. He sent the letter because he didn't have her phone number. She went around and made sure both her children, myself, and my sister Dawn was okay with it. We of course said yes because we wanted her to be happy and smile again. And thats what he did from that moment on. He always made my mother smile. He loved his friends and family with all his heart. We all are blessed for knowing him and thanks to him we all can smile thinking of him, just as he made all of us smile every time we were around him :).

Daddy you will forever be in my heart. You may have been proud of me but I was more proud to be the daughter of a great man. I love you and miss you already.

You will always be missed love you

May you rest in Peace Mr. Royer...God Bless your family during this difficult time..

Kelley,

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Life has made us friends but Christ made us sisters. He is with your mom now and they have missed one another. I will see you this weekend.

Sonny was a great man. I did not know him that well. But my granddaughter would love going to see him and aunt Sharon. He would always have gold fish for her to eat from what I was told. My aunt told me a few weeks ago that Kinners had Sonny wrapped around her finger. Sonny you will be missed by all. R.I.P

Though my last name will change in 2 days, a part of me will always be a Royer. It was, and is, an honor to be your daughter-in-law. Love you Pop.

God Bless you Poppy! I have always admired you. You gave me your one and only daughter for which I can never thank you enough. From the very first time I talked to you on the phone when calling for Kelley, you inspired a large presence and somewhat fear in me.

Meeting you in person for the first time 13 years ago only backed those fears up. ;) Over time, I found you to be a great man with a truly genuine and big heart. A big teddy bear with a heart of gold. I still would fear you when you grumbled. Even your nephews knew and feared that grumble (LOL). But I knew, you still loved me. We miss you Poppy. Kelley and Sharon really miss you. I promise to take good care of your little girl. So you can now rest in peace. Love you

Sonny (Pops) as I called Him was a wonderful man! I feel so Blessed He walked into My Mothers life! He sure did make it a wonderful one and he shared a wonderful daughter who i am proud to call my Sister! I know I always enjoyed calling Mom and hearing Pops picking on me in the background.. It always made me laugh! Pops, thank you for becoming my StepDad! You will always be in my heart and forever in my memories! You sure were taken from Us way to soon! R.I.P. Pops!! Love You, Dawn Marie <3

You are the second great love of my life. We were sooo blessed to have reconnected after losing Vivian and Danny. I miss you already. I am so proud to be your wife and I will love you always.

Byron was a good friend and brother Master Mason. He gave his all to supporting his church, his lodge and the Tall Cedars fight against MD. I appreciated his friendship and he will be greatly missed.

He is now at rest in the arms of Jesus his Savior. May the Lord bless and comfort his family.

Sharon, our deepest, deepest sympathy is with you at this time. We are so sorry to hear of Sonny's passing. Even though we only knew him for a short time it was obvious how much he loved you and you him. He was a wonderful, gentle man and we will miss him. You and the family are in our thoughts and prayers.

I never met him in person but daniel spoke of him often and how happy he made his mom and spoke of kelley often and how much he loved them and the family dinners at his mom's and Sonny's house and how sonny was so nice to him and he was alway talking about how nice sonny was and caring and i have heard so much about him i feel as if i have known him for a long time. I am so sorry for ur loss and if i can help in any way please feel free to contact me i know what it is like to loss a dad. god has a reason for taking him and it is a special reason. we will see him again one day. he is in heaven with god. and he is watching over his family still. god bless u all. many god be with you always.

It has been two weeks since you passed Dad and you have been on my mind all day today. I love and miss you! I wish I had called you the day you went to heaven because you were on my mind that morning. I hope you are feeling the beautiful sunshine on your face today and all is peaceful where you are! Love, Kelley
