Obituaries

Albert Leroy (Roy) Stambaugh III, born in Harrisburg, PA on February 26, 1949 (“the first half of the last century,” he would proudly announce), was released from his 10-year battle with Alzheimer’s on Thursday, July 16, 2020. Roy was known for his compassion, his loyalty, his generosity, his sense of humor, and his love for his adoring wife, Suzanne.

Roy met Suzanne Roof in the summer of 1967, after having graduated from Bishop McDevitt High School where he threw some serious heat on the baseball field; however, once Roy saw Suzanne descend Pomeroy’s department store escalator in “that blue dress”, he knew he was going to marry her. On September 5, 1970, he did just that.
