Roy Allen Ford, age 88, of Weston Florida, passed away peacefully surrounded by loved ones on October 2, 2024.
A true Florida native, he was born in Hollywood Florida to the late Kenneth Ford and Evelyn Briner. Proceeded in death by his sister Nancy Johnson.
Roy is survived by his loving wife, Carol, of 65 years, his children: Bob, Lisa (Mike), Christina & son (in law) Sal. He leaves behind his three grandchildren: Salvatore, Isabella, and Caroline, who were the lights of his life. Roy's surviving siblings are his brother Calvin (Karen) Ford, his sisters: Sharon (Terry) Hughes and Susan Cato and his very dear cousin, Marie Harrington.
During his life, he enjoyed the love and support of the many nieces and nephews, extended family and very dear friends.
Those who knew Roy best, will remember the love he had for his family, his strong hard-working hands, his perseverance through endless hospital visits, his very strong opinions, and signature phrases.
His pride and greatest accomplishment was his family! His happiest times were the years he spent traveling and being close to his 3 grandchildren.
We know that he is (ON THE ROAD AGAIN) and that we shall see him again "good Lord willing and the creek don't rise".
Funeral Arrangements are entrusted to Boyd-Panciera Family Funeral Care, 1600 N University Drive, Pembroke Pines, Florida 33024.
