As a young man, he was a great dancer and a musician. Roy played the upright bass in a jazz band with his brother Pat. They played various weddings and clubs throughout Cincinnati. Roy continued to play weekly with Pat up until the last few months.
After retiring in 1999 from Kirk and Blum Manufacturing, Roy became a motorcycle enthusiast, buying his first bike at age 70. He made many friends over the past eighteen years.
