LUNENBURG - George A. Roy, 84, passed away peacefully, Tuesday, November 2, 2021 at Weeks Medical Center in Lancaster. George was the second child born to Mabel and Ovila Roy. In 1964 he married Patricia Childs and together they had three amazing children, Pam Deming of Littleton, Bruce Roy and Michael Roy of Lisbon.
He moved to Massachusetts around 1975, where he worked at Hamden Fence Company until his retirement in 1999, then returned to and purchased his childhood home. George enjoyed playing Bingo, prior to the Covid-19 pandemic and his evening rides with his friend Louie, seeing what wildlife they could spot. He was very fond of his cat Bandit, swearing that he acted just like a kid and knew what he was saying.
