LeRoy Watkins


So sorry for your loss. I knew Roy from teaching at Metro High School. We went on many week long bike trips with kids every Spring in the 80's and 90's. Such fond and hilarious memories of Roy and our adventures with kids on bikes. Roy had a wonderful and generous heart and made kids feel that they mattered. He was positive and had a knack for seeing the good in all. A dear man! Hugs to All, Cari Christenson

Jan, I was sorry to read about your loss. It hadn't occurred to me that your husband was Roy Watkins. It is a small world. I recognize his work at Metro and the bike connection. He did have the unconditional positive regard for everyone. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
