ROY BOY FAIRY

 

We met Roy in 2004 at a cold Christmas market in Worcester in the UK. He immediately got wings on and started to spread his very own special version of Fairylove; giving away hundreds of wishes to the weary shoppers! At this time Roy knew he had cancer but was profoundly confident that this was not going to affect the manner or the way in which he chose to live his life.

 

His was a life that burnt so brightly, all that came within his radius were thoroughly and completely warmed by his glow and we all shone with him in his brilliance. It was impossible to be miserable around Roy; life just didn't seem that complicated for him. He had a wonderful pragmatism, and he would sometimes quip that "life's too short to worry about things."  This is certainly one of the many  gifts that Roy has left us. His spirit stirs in me now as I write and I can feel again his indomitable strength riding high.

 

Roy Boy LOVED the party, loved champagne and more than anything else Roy loved to see, and be a part of other people enjoying themselves.

 

Roy worked with us all summer at the festivals. His doctor had instructed him not to return to work managing a pub. Something that Roy had a rare talent for we're  sure. Sadly we never got to visit one of Roy's pubs but from the stories told they were always in full swing and a storming success. At every festival Roy inevitably took charge of the Fairy bar and there was always a gin and tonic or champagne on hand for the weary fairy.

 

Roy touched literally thousands of  people at the festies this year. He truly was a natural born fairy. He absolutely loved dressing up and getting the fairy message out there loud and proud. People gravitated to Roy, he had such an infectious sense of naughtiness it was just impossible to resist!! He was an inspiration to all unsundry to let go of any fears that they had about dressing up and having fun. To our mind he completely embodied what it meant to be a fairy. To shine brightly, have no fear and have loads and loads and loads of fun!!!

 

At Roy's funeral today all will be dressing up and no doubt they'll be lots of fairies in attendance for the send off for the body of Roy Boy. One very large and very powerful truth about Roy is that his spirit has not suffered the same fate as his body. For all at Fairylove, his spirit is as strong as it ever was. We all are moving forward in the sure knowledge that RoyBoy's beautiful, beautiful soul will mingle amongst us until the day when we too can get our angel wings and join him for another Bombay Sapphire at the bar.

 

Roy Boy we love you now the same as we ever did, and the same as we always will.

Full Fairylove to you on your onward journey !

Roy was electric.  Boundless positive energy.  Always the last to leave the party, always the first to suggest another one.  Anything is possible and there's no such thing as too much effort.

I hadn't even known him a year but in that fraction of his life he's been an inspiration to me.  No matter how tired or in how much pain, Roy's energy is infectious.  And I say is and not was because that energy doesn't die with Roy.  That energy continues to touch all the people that knew him. This energy is passed on to us all.  We will keep the fire burning bright. 
We will never ever forget.
Roy.

I knew Roy for 11 years. Big daft bear that he was. I never did get to tell him what a difference he made.
If we/I learn anything from this it's this. Tell the people you care about that you care for them.

 

Dear Roy Boy

You are a bright star who touched every person you met.

You will live forever in my heart and soul. I will always remember your gorgeous, infectious, pesky laugh and the joy you brought everywhere you went. I know you are in a heavenly place charming all the fairy's you meet and I look forward to the day I will see you again and we can laugh and jump around like silly billies for as long as we please.
All my love bright star.

What an amazing, sparkly, happy, energetic, and beautiful fairy our Roy boy is... I met him at Glastonbury this year, and he was so warm and friendly and kind to me. I was feeling quite down at that time but I felt so welcomed by him even though we'd never met before, and he helped me to enjoy the glastonbury experience a whole lot more than I would have done had he not been there. Thankyou thankyou thankyou roy boy, I'm so sad that I couldn't have got to know you more...but something of your positivity and magic has rubbed off on me, as it has on countless others, and that will never tarnish...it will shine on and on and on.

Love you forever and ever.

To Roy,

You are sadly missed, it seems so unfair. I still think about how you should
be around on my birthday as we were only 5 days apart. Its nice to have a
photo on the internet so that I can remember you to my little girl, Heidi. I
hear we still liked the same music when you died and we were always close in
spirit. You also had a sense of adventure and liked to explore different
places I am told. I hope you were given the support you deserved when you
were ill.

YOU ARE LOVED AND MISSED,

Donna Nigel and Heidi xxx
