   My earliest memory of Roy was in 1979. Our family had just moved to California from Michigan. We needed a new tax person and my mother liked the fact that Roy was a prior teacher, and she was also a teacher. :

   I remember as a single mother Roy was willing to travel to Oceanside when my son was very young to complete our taxes. I thought how kind of him to travel so far. Happy 80th Birthday, Roy ~Paula:

Slide 26:

Roy is a special friend and our financial advisor for over 27 years. Roy has been a good friend and advisor for over 35 years. Roy prepared my parents' taxes when I was in high school, about 1968. Later he helped Mom & Dad with their investments and mine & my husband's later on. Roy has been a family friend for many years and we cherish his friendship and all he has done for us.

    I have known Roy since my high school days when he would come to our home and help my folks out with their taxes on our kitchen table. I couldn’t think of a better person to call for an objective and reassured opinion.:
