Roy was born Dec. 2, 1923 in western Washington to Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Woodworth. His mother died at an early age and his father remarried. He moved to Montana and went to school where he completed the seventh grade in Summers, Mont.
After he left home, he traveled throughout the area following the rails. He described himself as a "hobo." He did various types of work, one time working as a sheepherder.
In June 1968, he walked on to the Barnett-Rugg Ranch in Adams, where he was hired to work the pea harvest. He continued as a ranch hand and remained there until his retirement earlier this year.
He enjoyed fishing, reading and bowling. Though never married, he endeared himself to several families who included him in their activities and celebrations.
He faithfully attended an Assembly of God church in Pendleton for several years and then the Athena Baptist Church in Athena in his later years.
He was preceded in death by his parents, his step-mother, a brother and a sister. He is survived by his step-mother, Jane Woodworth of Camas, Wash., three step-nephews and a step-niece and several other nephews and nieces.
Memorial contributions may be made to a charity of the donator's choice in care of the Munselle-Rhodes Funeral Home, 902 S. Main, Milton-Freewater, OR 97862.
