LIVERMORE – Michael “Mike” Roy, 57, a resident of River Road in Livermore, passed away Monday, Sept. 13, at his home with his wife and sons by his side following a long battle with prostate cancer.

He was born on Nov. 22, 1946, in Lewiston, the son of Roland and Anita Ouellette Roy. He was a 1964 graduate of Edward Little High School and served in the U.S. Navy as a sonar technician from 1965 to 1968.

On Nov. 17, 1990, he married the former Carol Morse in Auburn. He worked for Verizon as an equipment installer for 31 years, retiring in December of 2001.

He will be remembered for his love of family, his unique sense of humor and contagious laugh.

He enjoyed spending time off-road jeeping, working around the house and listening to music. His main goal in life was making people laugh.

He is survived by his wife, Carol, of Livermore; his mother, Anita Roy Van Oosten and her husband, Peter, of Greene; two sons, Thomas (Tom) and his wife, Tracey, of Kennebunk and Andrew (Andy), of Lewiston; four brothers and their wives, Paul and Pat Roy, of Greene, David and Annette Roy, of Greene, Steven and Kelly Roy, of Arundel and James Roy, of Greene; three grandchildren, Jordan, Hailey and Colby who lovingly refer to him as “Grumpy.”

He was predeceased by his father, Roland Roy in 1995.
