A celebration of Roy Mackay’s life.

Roy Mackay’s family can now confirm plans for the celebration of Roy’s long, full and incredibly rich life.  This event will be held at the Paluma Village Hall from 2pm on Sunday 21st April, after the Easter market.

A barbecue and refreshments will be provided and further beverages will be available from the bar.

After the current period of grief and mourning that many of us are going through, this will be an opportunity to celebrate his life with love, happiness and respect.

We look forward to seeing all of you who knew Roy, who would like to join us and are able to do so.

Anyone who would like to say a few words about Roy will be able to after family members have done so. To assist with planning it would help (but isn’t essential) if those wishing to speak could let David Mackay know by email: kdavidmackay@gmail.com

Thank you.

Vale Roy Mackay – a message from the Mackay family

Roy David Mackay passed away peacefully in his sleep at Regis,  Kirwan,  on 12 February 2019.
Roy’s wishes were that there be no service at his cremation.

So that family and friends (from Paluma and elsewhere) can pay tribute to the incredible life that was his, an event celebrating his life is being planned for Paluma. Once arrangements have been finalised another notice will be posted on Paluma.org with the details. 
The family would like to thank the Paluma community for their support of Roy,  particularly in his twilight years,  and to the family since his passing.

Kind regards, 
David Mackay
