    Royce did so much for the Caleodnia community ranging from supporting the Caledonia fire department, the Caledonia Conservancy Land Trust , the Caledonia Historical Society, and planting all of the trees on their property. He was a lover of the land and always improving the environment we live in. Royce always had the time to sit down with me to talk about the land and the trees. He will be missed, but his legacy lives on in preserving their land.

    I am saddened to hear of Royse’s passing (and regretful that I have heard so late). He always seemed immortal to me, always with a quick, witty response and sly smile whenever I worked with him. He and Barbara showed nothing but kindness to my family and me. RIP Royse.

    I know this appears quite late but I never had the opportunity to tell Royce goodbye. He would visit with us often on his 4 wheeler when he was caring for his land. Often he would return items the wind blew from our property to his driving right up to our front door. I know he looks down at the beautiful color of all his trees he cared for. We miss you as our friend & neighbor Royce.
    Our sympathy to the family

The funeral service was just beautiful and very warming to everyone including my family. All the pictures they did and the employees were just fantastic. This is one funeral home I would highly recommend to anyone that wants to feel comfortable and to be treated like family. I can’t say enough good things because it was just such a warm welcome. Thank you to Mark and Mike. We couldn’t have done it without all of you.
