Maxie Roy Jr., 66, a native of Kaplan and a resident of Verdunville, passed 
away peacefully in his home surrounded by love.

Maxie, also known as "Smiley", will be lovingly remembered as a kind hearted 
man full of life, laughter, and joy. 

Maxie began life on a farm and never lost his love of animals and nature. 
Maxie was a 1965 graduate of Patterson High School and his classmates will 
never forget the fun times and adventures they shared. After his legendary high 
school career, he proudly served his country in the United States Air Force. 
Following his time in the service, his roots brought him back to St. Mary 
Parish where he worked in the oilfield for over 40 years with his buddies until 
his retirement.

Maxie is survived by his loving wife of 30 years, Crystal Cooper Roy, and their 
daughter Kailyn Roy Daniel and her husband Doug of Lafayette. 
He is also survived by his daughters Bridget Roy of Centerville and Nadine Roy 
Porta of Denham Springs. Additionally he is survived by five grandchildren and 
his two four legged buddies, Buster and Jr.

Maxie is preceded in death by his parents Marie and Maxie Roy Sr., several 
Aunts and Uncles, and his beloved cat Dulac.

A celebration of Maxie's life will be Wednesday, November 27, 2013 at Hargrave 
Funeral Home from 4pm until 7pm, with a service of remembrance beginning at 6 
pm.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in memory of Maxie to Miles Perret 
Cancer Services, 2130 Kaliste Saloom Rd. Suite 200 Lafayette, La. 70508
