Fwd: [Foothill Cycle Club: 2753] Roy Francis


Hi FCC,

Sorry i have been running around and I will certainly share more once I Get back, but in the meantime, Lucia did reach out to me, and although she appreciates all the messages that she has been getting, she did want some time to grieve and ask that anyone who would like to relay any message to her and Marina to go through me.

Would you be able to relay this to everyone?

Thanks,
Andy

Andy,
I wasn't best friends with Roy, but I am saddened to hear of his passing.
Do you know what happened to him, bike accident, sickness, etc.?
Do you know anything regarding a remembrance ceremony or anything like that?

Hope you are doing well.

Best regards,
Richard Ryon

Hi Brian,

You may or may not remember me, but I was Roy’s neighbor and i used to come out to ride with the foothills group with Roy quite often a couple years back. Ever since I had kids, I have been riding less and I think my last ride with you guys has been well over a year.

It really saddens me to say this, but Roy has passed away and is no longer with us. I know the cycling family was very important to him and I wanted to share this with his friends and family. Unfortunately, his death was too sudden… he was going through quite a lot.. I know I certainly will miss my friend as I have learned a lot from him. To me he was family and he was the one who got me into cycling. Into something I will always treasure and enjoy. He was a great neighbor and a caring friend. He has helped me tremendously again and again.

My son remembers Roy as the one who taught him what a rock was when he was 10 months old…i am deeply saddened by this turn of events…

Please spread your prayers and love for Roy with the people who love him like we do.

Kind regards,
Andy
