Leroy Edwin Bodily was born on June 4, 1926 in Preston Idaho to Myrl and Lula Bodily. Roy attended school there in Preston afterwards he went to college. Roy only attended college for a short time before he joined the Army. But due to family illness he was forced to leave to return home to take care of the family farm
Later in life Roy moved to Moscow to start his career in the meat industry working first at the dairy on the U of I campus delivering milk to the dorms where he then worked at the packing plants as a butcher. Then after that Roy moved to Colfax to work for Safeway as a meat cutter and later on as meat department manager and it was at the Safeway buffet and bingo party in Moscow where Roy met and fell in love with his wife Darlene in March 1969.
Roy and Darlene were married a year later on March 24, 1970 and remained as such for over 40 years. Roy could often times be found fishing in the Lewiston area or hunting wild game from which his highly sought after sausage was made. But his main passion was dancing
Roy was a very hard worker all of his life beginning on the family farm with his father but was better known for his great personality and big heart, always socializing and visiting with friends
Arrangements have been entrusted to Short's Funeral Chapel.
