Russell, Lenny, Debbie, Connie families, My condolences to each of you. My memories of both your mom and dad go back about 56 years ago. What great and fun neighbors and friends you all were to our family. We shared a lot of laughs especially with Royce. He did love to tease and joke and laugh. I know you will all miss that. Please know the Wests will never forget him!

Royce
If only I could have another day with you. You were a favorite and I enjoyed every minute with you...from our dates for dinners and moose trips to alzheimers meetings and car rides. You always knew what I needed to hear. You are definitely an inspiration to many. So even though the on the 24th you were going to take me out for a birthday dinner and we ended up spending time together differently I would not have wanted to spend my birthday working for anyone else. You were like fa mile to me. I loved working for you.. I sure do miss you greatly. Thank you for letting me hold your hand one last time. I will never forget you. Till we meet again!

Royce was a one of a kind. I always loved talking with him. I feel so lucky to have spent time with him last Saturday. Great jokes and as always lots of teasing from him. He was one tough man! Rest in peace Royce.

Royce insisted on living every single day of his life despite handicaps that would stop many of the rest of us in our tracks. I will remember that, and his wonderful deep-from-the-chest laugh at life's absurdities. He was generous with help and firm with advice and he was usually right! I don't think there has been or will be, another Royce Farber. Rest in comfort and peace, Royce - you certainly earned it.

YOU HAVE MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY. I WAS WITH ROY THAT NIGHT WHEN I CALLED THE AMBULANCE, I WENT TO THE HOSPITAL WITH HIM AND LET HIM KNOW THAT I WAS STAYING WITH HIM. ROY WAS ONE OF A VERY FEW CLIENTS THAT WILL LEAVE A LASTING IMPRESSION ON ME. I SPENT SEVERAL NIGHTS WITH HIM AND IN SPITE OF HIS MANY HEALTH ISSUES HE ALWAYS MAINTAINED A SENSE OF HUMOR , I WILL MISS HIM.
