  1. Roy had a smile and spirit that lifted everyone up. He was such a joy to work with at KPLR. I met him as a new on-air personality, not long after I met my husband-to-be, Ted Koplar. He knew how to make me comfortable in front of the camera.
    He was at our wedding, 48 years ago with his beautiful wife, Ginny. I continued to work with Roy for many years. The quintessential and award-winning photographer, Roy brought incredible humor to his work. He always had us laughing, and I looked forward to every job with him. He was extremely talented and creative, and, yet his quiet humility and sweet and understanding manner made him very easy to work with. I will miss him and that winning smile.
    The world has lost a great man, but the heavens are singing Hallelujah!
    My condolences to you, Dave & Laura, and to your children who will miss their wonderful, jovial & loving Grandpa. He is with his life’s sweetheart now, your incredible Mother, and I know Ted is happy to welcome Roy home, too.
    Lovingly,
