- Roy Cope worked for General Motors at the Norwood Assembly Plant from 1950 until 1987 when the plant closed. The Norwood factory built some of GM's most popular cars; chief among them, the Chevrolet Camaro and Pontiac Firebird. Its closure was controversial, with many insiders speculating that it was corporate retaliation for the many strikes that occurred at the Norwood plant throughout its history.
Listen to Roy Cope's story and tell us what you think about the SOLID GOLD CAMARO he painted at Norwood!

Young people please cherish the older generations, they have a lifetime of experience that they are more than willing to share with you if you just ask. So happy some of this man’s wisdom is captured here forever.
Totally agreed. I loved listening to stories my grandparents would tell. There's wisdom and history there.
Based on this interview, this man is a man of dignity and honor. We don't see enough of this anymore.
Agreed!
It saddens me that people like this are a thing of the past. We need more people like this gentleman right here!
Cheer Up WE are Still HERE 💪🤓🇺🇸
That's an interesting comment. Why do you think his stories are made up?
It isn’t dead, it’s just dormant. Like a volcano, if it were to erupt… The current power structure would crumble..
You're looking at it the complete wrong way. There are millions of people like him. There aren't nearly as many managers who actually give a fuck anymore.
Take a look in the mirror and ask yourself why you are not like this man, and then ask yourself why you want others to be more like him.
This Man is the real deal. There is much to learn from him about principal and conviction.
Agreed. I'd love to hear his thoughts on a whole host of topics!
When this gentleman said nobody had to show him how to do anything, he thought himself, he didn't have to tell me that. You can just tell. Man, I grew up in the wrong era. What a cool man and hero of our country for his service.
Agreed!
Take a good look people, This is a real man and unfortunately he might be the last of them...
Thank you for sharing this with us 🙏
He was definitely of a special generation! What an amazing life he lead!
Such a GREAT INDIVIDUAL! THEY DONT MAKE THEM LIKE THAT ANYMORE. VERY HONEST AND HONORABLE. GREAT LIFE.
Agreed! So many of these guys saw and did so many amazing things!
Silver Anniversary for the Camaro would have been 1992. Gold would have been 2017. The video only shows 70s models, which makes sense because the Norwood plant closed in 1987.
So yeh, nice story.
I'm getting really tired of you people acting like there aren't people like this guy anymore... That doesn't even make sense... Hard working and honest...? Yeah, there are endless amounts of people just like this guy. The problem is managers/higher ups don't reward people like this anymore.
I'm an absurdly hard worker and most of the time I end up getting completely fucked one way or another. Working hard nowadays gets you thrown under the bus because you make everyone else look bad; and the managers hate you because everyone else hates you for being such a hard worker. So there's no motivation. Hard work doesn't get rewarded anymore. SO what's the fucking point?
Yes they do, but no one talks about them
Legend
America needs people like this man now more than ever.
I think they're out there, but Roy was certainly of a special generation.
This fella has the values and work ethic America needs today. Bless you, sir.
Thank you that is so true today
"they made this UAW autoworker paint the car". Made him?! this is why they hired him. And he was blessed to have a once in a lifetime paint job thats on social media today 🎉 Thanks for bringing this story to life. A great Christian American Man, And thanks to this man for his service in the Korean war 🇺🇸🇺🇸. The American dream encapsulated in this man's story. 💪🏼
Having worked at C-P-C Van Nuys. The folks that transfer over from Norwood due to the closure were good hard-working folks on the line. This gentleman is a great example of the hard-working characters We worked with. In a large plant you meet all kinds of people. But it was a privilege to work with those folks who came from Norwood. Good folks like this guy and gals existed back in the day. THANK you for showing one of them. Plus letting him tell his story.
Tony, I worked at Van Nuys from 72 until the end. The Norwood guys were great. Both plants were in competition to see who would stay open. VN or Norwood. Van Nuys stayed on. I felt bad for those guys, A few came to VN, super nice to work with and we welcomed them all in. Did the same in the 70s when the South Gate, CA plant closed.
We need to document more of these kind of stories. The autoworker world is totally different today. Take care.
@@watcher818 Wow one of the long timers. I started at EMD Div. in 70, then due to layoffs was given three strikes as to next location. Well, VN was the closest so off I went. We were local 509 there. The west coast UAW big wigs back then sent their sons to work on locomotive rebuild. So, going to VN's was really different for me. Started in trim and became a TMR to get off of doing just one job. My manger was named Phil in the dept. He knew me from EMD when he worked there as a supervisor when things were slow at VN. What an eye opener to be doing a car every 2.5 to3 minutes. Seeing folks working back-to-back shifts was different. Us EMD guys were spread out between body and trim upstairs. I was at EMD when south gate was closed. Commerce wasn't too far from there. Very sad deal. I laugh when I remember summer 90-day guys from collage running for the door when the line stopped. 15 bucks just wasn't enough, I guess. In the late 80's I got by. Plus, it was in my last semester at, Mt. Sac But I made it I can't image how things are now? Oh, on O/T we would work the line back to do missed pick-ups all the way out to PMT pick up. Glad you mad it to the end. My 24 Camaro was #8 from the end at that location. Never could afford one back then, but I would have got a very special GTA if? My new Camaro is a well-built SS. Funny after working there you never see a car or truck the same way. You, take care Bro.
Having an uncle who worked at Pontiac motors 1950-80. Hardest working guy I have known. From the foundry to the diff plants and lines. His stories were epic and true. Miss him.
Was it the foundry in Pontiac, Michigan on E. Montcalm st.?
@@living-wellon-less5669 He worked there yes. Along with quite a few other Pontiac plants.
@@dougderby9454 I retired in 2006 from the stamping plant that was right next to the foundry! I started at the Fisher Body plant on Baldwin in 1976, we built the bodies that would be sent by conveyor to the Pontiac motors plant! Then I went to the Orion plant, then Corvette, then back to Orion, then the stamping plant! When they tore down the foundry I was able to save 2 of the bricks that were at the very top of the smoke stack! I grew up in Waterford, I know that area very well!
@@living-wellon-less5669 he started in roughly 1950 retired 1980. Believe the last 8 years he was pulling full size cars off the line. Wore his back out. Lot hard working early years in the foundry and stamping.
@@dougderby9454 I refused to work in the foundry, I know too many people who died early and the only common denominator was they all worked in the foundry! When they tore it down the dust was causing people to get sick and GM had to do a cleanup before they sold the land to the postal service! My last 3 years I was an outside fork truck driver and I never spent more than 30 minutes a day in the plant! A lot of people hurt their back pulling cars off the line, I don't think anybody escaped some sort of injury from all the repetitive motion required! If I had to do it all over again I would have worked a lot harder in school.
Couldn't believe whole bunch of those guys spray-painting at the same time and not one of them wearing a mask imagine their lungs in a few years👍🏼😎🇨🇦
I was thinking the same thing. Nobody took any precautions back then and they paid dearly for it later.
That surprised me too, nobody had on a mask. Breathing in the fumes.
The state of California didn't know yet, so nobody else did either lol
Yeah, ,and they probably smoked at every break too. WILD!
They did run a fresh air system to cut down on paint dust. The room has to be kept clean to keep junk from landing in the fresh paint. But yes how times have changed.
Principled man, standing for what he believed in... God bless him for being so honorable...
Agreed!
I worked for a company that worked on commercial trucks, (Peterbilt, Kenworth, Volvo etc.) and one time a truck got painted with a color that had crushed gold in the formula, it cost over $1100.00 a gallon. When it was done, and you looked at the truck in the sun, it looked like nothing you'd ever seen before.
I don't recall him saying that in the video, but no, it doesn't take that much to paint a car.@@Lettuce-and-Tomatoes
After watching the video again, he states, "I put $300K of paint on one car". I would have to see the documents to prove this, but it might be possible.
@@Lettuce-and-Tomatoes
Boy would I love to see that!!!
Yeah, the exact amount/price might be a bit of a stretch, but the story is amazing! Who knows though...GM might pay the same prices for gold paint that the government pays for toilet seats. Hahaha
@@3602go
In 1977, inflation adjusted, gold was at most $168.15 per troy ounce. Generously allowing 5 gallons of pure gold paint for just the exterior, it would be about $98k.
This guy reminds me of my grandfather. It's nice to hear someone talk about how much pride he took in his work, and how he stood up for his beliefs, and cared about his fellow man. I was born in the early seventies and I feel like people like the gentleman in the video are few and far between anymore. The current generation is just disappointing. God bless America.
The best 18 minutes of my day Thank You!
I worked at a Chevy dealership for 20 years. The stories I could tell would fill a book!
This man would never sell himself OR Others for the old Mighty Dollar, Dedication and Self Respect is what we are to Pass along to our Children.
Truly principled man!
This old gentleman reminds me of my grandfather who was born in 1933. I could listen to him speak for hours. He grew up on a small farm in Mississippi then joined the military and could make or do about anything he put his mind too just like this man.❤
Sounds like he was a great man! What did he do for a career? Just curious!
Very Cool. Unfortunately things have changed for the worse. GM is no longer a car company. According to one GM CEO quote; "We used to be a car company that occasionally lent people money. Now were a Bank that sometimes makes cars". Thank you.
Thats awesome, as a painter and bodyman i love hearing this story this gentlemen is great 👍 wish you all the best sir.
Right. My first job out of welding school was truckers equipment. I was trust into painting service trucks. And soon had the local chevy dealership sending their trucks over to get touch up work. I paint matched flat beds, tool boxes and wench beds. We soon started offering custom colors and 2 tone paint jobs to match the beds with 2 tone cabs. Before we were just painting our projects. Next thing you know they open up a separate paint shop. And I was left to build oilfield trucks. I was bummed..lol. 😂
Now there's someone who's never had one bad thing to say about...himself.
Hahaha. I think he was just very proud of his career and the work he put in over it.
His memory is stellar. Dude remembers specific dates.
He really lived a pretty amazing life!
Simply put this man took pride in his work and he worked to be the best he could be all the time.
He was a union man but he had a strong work ethic and principals. He was not like so many employees there for the paycheck and to do no more than it takes to do it with union protection.
100% You nailed the focus of this story!
I would like to spend a day or two with this man. A lot to be learned about from his stories.
This man is a total bad ass and a Ledge , God bless that man..!! And thank you 🙏 for your Service..!!
Agreed! "They don't make 'em like they used to" applies to guys like this as well as cars!
I am a die-hard GM guy and I love hearing stories
That's America. That's "the old school". But in actual terms that would represent this fellow right. This is a genuine Man amongst Men. Leading a life staying true to what's right and that of example. If we can take one thing from this interview. I'm sure you're with me when I say, I got the Gold one!! Kidding... It's that we listen to those who started or built this great country, for their time doing so helped forge the stripes and stars on the flag best known around the world. Also that we do not abandon or shake free of our values, for self fortunes that present themselves along the way. And finally, that we mustn't forget what fuels someone, day in day out that kept this man strong, driven, wanted, respected and alive to one day do this interview and keep pressing forward. The answer to that is God.
Roy was certainly a special guy! Thanks for the comment!
Such a great human being. Just imagine what this world would be like if the rest of the world were like him.
I think I have seen that car. My dad worked for Chevrolet and he took me with him a couple times when he went to some of the company offices in Detroit. Couldn’t help but notice no one was wearing a mask while spraying paint. And they weren’t using all the new fancy water based paint we use now. So there was plenty of paint and solvent to inhale even if using downdraft paint booths. You could smell those factories for 20 miles. If the wind was right I could smell the Chevy plant my dad worked at 16 miles away.
I Absolutly LOVE this Man and his background history!
Great man kept it real always. No matter where he went everyone loved him. 🙏👍 love your work
His generation was really something special! We love helping get their stories out!
Awesome story. A great American.
Absolutely. It's so amazing what these guys endured through Korea and Vietnam. I know that there were so many WWII vets that worked at this same plant/in the auto industry as well. And since then, so many vets from the numerous middle east conflicts that go on to work in the auto industry...just really amazing what many of these guys have seen/done in their lives.
You can certainly tell Roy worked hard his whole life and is proud of what he did over his career.
This is a man who had pride in his work something many dont know about today so sad lost trades
Loved listening to older people speak since i was a lil boy in late 80s early 90s. Im eeking up on 40 and 20 year olds today get kick out of my stories growing up through the computer revolution and 9/11. I'll be old some day and hope to have such a fond remembrance of my past to share with youngers
Grab a camera and start recording your stories now! Your kids and grandkids will love hearing them from the younger you!
More people must take a stance of honor like this man.
Agreed. Roy lived by a code. That's for sure.
He wasn't worried about money because he had money. This was the era when GM employees were basically kings of whatever state they lived in. He never worried about money or retirement because he had an amazing pension. It's not like that anymore. Corporations only care about making money for the shareholders and they pay the employees as little as possible while making record profits for the company.
Thank You for serving, Sir!!
We owe his generation A LOT!
Sir..
Thank you so much for posting this Video. This Man reminds me So much of my father. Edmond Clingerman. My Dad work at the Syracuse NY. Plant he work there from 1962 till 1993. Dad was also the last Man out of the Plant in Syracuse Ny. I was able too work there the last year of 1993.. this plant made all the interior plastic. This plant was closed And went too Mexico..
You are welcome! Could we interview you for the channel? I'd love to hear your stories as well! I'd love to hear your perspective both working in the plant, as well as growing up in a household were your dad worked there. Send me an email to hello@originalmotorcar.com if you are interested and let's set something up!
Good stuff. I could listen to this all day!👍
Us too!
“I’m not gonna be used by no man” … that sums up the attitude of greatest time in our country
Agreed.
WOW! So THIS is the guy that can sand down a car and paint it? I always wanted to see who he was, and now I know. Wow. Just wow!
If only the younger generations were as humble as this man.
He was truly a great guy to sit and talk with.
What a FASCINATING interview.
Such an informative and interesting TH-cam video. Thank you ❤
What an amazing inspiration. America needs more people like that RIGHT NOW 🙏💪💯
Agreed!
This guy's story about the treatment plant just reminded me of my dad.
My father worked as a corrosion researcher for a large oil, gas, and chemical company (it's one of the top companies with gas stations, not a small player). After years of doing chemical research and development, he worked in and eventually ran the corrosion testing lab. Probably not many people who can run a corrosion lab from what he says because its a small field and there aren't many of those labs. Prior to retirement, he trained a few people to take over, but the company always transferred them to different divisions. He retired... they asked multiple times for him to come back and train someone in the lab. He refused because he had already trained multiple people. He always has been the type to stick to his convictions.
Sounds like he was a really great guy, and highly regarded!
Great video - I’m excited to catch this channel early on - good luck!
Thanks! That really means a lot! You were here first, Brian. You're on OMC OG! Sincerely, thanks for the kind words! :)
The man is salt of the earth with a brilliant mind & the heart of an artist; I would have liked to have known him.
Roy was certainly special. I feel like that entire generation was special, but he sure was a standout!
@@OriginalMotorCar There's a tendency we all have to look back at prior generations w/ some awe. For me, it was the WWII generation. There were just so many, the rarity was someone who wasn't in the war. Many of them still served in some other way.
Those of us who were raised by that generation were influenced by both parents war time experience AND their Great Depression experience.
I think the Great Depression experience might have had more impact than WWII; certainly more impact on lifestyle, which carried on.
Thriftiness, no wasting resources, save & reuse, sharing any excess became their way of life & was passed in to us by word & deed. I grew up where the 4-5 house radius around your own was a micro community. If you saw a neighbor working on their house & you were a carpenter, you offered to help. Their car & you were a mechanic, you offered.
When someone in the house was injured or sick, food, household help or transportation was offered/given.
If a wage earner was out of work, you kept an ear open or inquired of others on their behalf. If you were able, you got them to yourselves & offered what you could. The family or kids got extra dinner invites, or a BBQ was thrown.
Now, just being on a 1st name basis w/ next door neighbors is uncommon. Everybody gets in their silos & disengages.
A side effect of being around WWII & GD era people was an instillment of tye importance of not only sacrificing for the common good or frugality/thrift & generosity, but also being true to your word.
If an offer to help someone w/ their roof, car, porch, pruning, whatever was accepted, not showing up was not an option. It's likely they needed & were depending on your help; flaking out was considered a serious moral failing & character flaw. Peo0le valued how others saw them & took pride in themselves.
That leads me to what I see as the major generational difference I've seen, the epidemic of mediocrity & down right incompetence. People just don't seem to take pride in what they do, be it inconsequential or important.
It used to be the rarity was someone who was bad at what they did, or half-azzed it; now, it seeks the rarity is people who excel, or are into doing their jobs/professions to the best of their ability.
There seems to be a mentality in the people who have ordinary, mundane jobs that their job doesn't deserve the effort an 'important' job merits.
Then, a lot of people w/ those 'important' jobs are not very good at them or don't strive to excel.
I think a lot of this is not moral, ethical or character flaws. I firmly believe it tracks w/ the decades of wage stagnation & the deliberate tear down of unions. There's been a smear campaign on unions my entire 70 years alive. There's been wage stagnation my entire life.
Right now, everybody's in sticker shock about rising costs & inflation. If artificial wage stagnation hadn't been the norm for the last 70 years, the standard of living would be higher; higher even than the inflation rate.
When people aren't living from paycheck to paycheck, they accumulate assets & wealth. If their wages keep up w/ inflation, they have a cushion for unexpected incidents.
We have way too high a percentage of our population 1 big event away from ruin or 2 minor events away from it being a crisis.
You put people in a wage stagnati9n cycle for long enough & an attitude can develop where people don't feel valued & their pride of job disappears; "They don't care about paying me a living wage, so why should I bust my azz?"
This leads to a downward spiral to rampant mediocrity.
Roy's a good example of how it's done right. Sure, he has a good foundation, humble, earnest farmboy, but when he rightfully boasts about his accomplishments at GM, in the same breath, he mentions the generous compensation.
Even in someone without Roy's background, the same level of drive to excel, pride in craftsmanship & integrity can be learned or developed when people are adequately compensated.
When corporations or companies continually push down wages, the message they send is the jib's not important; why in the name of sanity would anyone think the employees would disagree & act accordingly.
If you get one thing out of your GM history project, understand the importance of paying workers generously & how it can do much, much more rhan just increase individuals' bank accounts.
Good luck w/ your continuing work oj this project; it's a very worthwhile endeavor.
Regards,
GeoD
This is a great interview with a real American HERO !
georgewest9998 Calling him a "hero" is a bit much IMO.
Agreed!
What would you call him?
@@OriginalMotorCar A man that did his job.
wow so impressed, much respect to this hard working man
This is when back in the day when a hard days work and proud to do the job and do it right the first time.
A good union man
Yep, agreed.
Great interview, I'd like to Thank that man for his Service at home and Abroad. My '69 Camaro was built at Norwood and I really love seeing this history being told.
That's great! What color/spec is your Camaro?
We have a ton of Norwood content, so keep checking back, and please share with others that you think might like it too!
@OriginalMotorCar Its an RS/SS 350, 4 speed, 12 bolt car that came in Daytona yellow with the deluxe yellow houndstooth interior.
Wonderful story, thanks for making this video
Absolutely! We hope to bring MANY more stories like this out on this channel!
What a phenomenal gentleman that you interviewed. I could listen to him for hours on end. My first car that I bought brand new was a 1978 Pontiac TransAm. It was White with the Skybird blue interior with the Skybird blue honey comb wheels with the screaming chicken decal on the hood near the cowl shaker. It was a V8 with a 400 engine & an automatic. I paid $8,100 for the car. It had posi-traction for the rear wheel’s. I put over 200K plus miles on my car before I gave the car to my youngest brother for him & his wife to drive. I’m assuming my car was made at the same plant as the Camaro. I thoroughly enjoyed your story.
America needs to be more like this guy ❤
Absolutely!
WOW what a great American! Most American heros don't have famous names. Our country really needs a generation like his again. The young men & women from WW2 to the end of the 50's were a special breed. And God we need them now
Great interview with a honest man.
We agree! This was a special generation of people for sure!
What a great guy and a great story! Loved thee content. Keep them coming.
Thanks so much! We're trying!!! We have tons of footage. Just have to get it all cut and uploaded. Keep checking back for more, and please share with anyone else you think might like them too!
@@OriginalMotorCar I will!
How does this channel have less than a million subs? Awesome video , awesome guy.
Thank you so much sir ❤
When I was a kid I got to tour the plant including the paint both. It was very cool
I wish I had toured it before it closed in 87! I would have been 8 when it closed, so I might have not remembered much, but thank goodness some video exists that shows what the plant was like! Check out Norwoodlegends.com for a doc we’ll be releasing about the Norwood plant.
Fantastic website you have here, I love it❤.
Thanks so much! Glad you’re enjoying it!
GM UAW workers made some incredible pay for what they did at that time. My Uncle Pat started with Rochester and retired from Tonawanda.
Yeah, it was possible to support a whole family on that pay. Economics were different then, for sure.
This man had a lot of pride in his craft. These values are not common these days.
Agreed!
That's what it's all about it's not about money it's about love and passion
He really seemed to put himself into his work!
Yes sir one of the Salt of the Earth Men you have here. People like him IS WHAT built AMERICA! ...thank you for sharing this.
Hard headed fellas like this guy, are what is needed today...world would be better..
He was hard headed, but soft hearted. A wonderful combo.
My dad ran the paint line for Sheller-Globe in Portland, IN in the '80s & early '90s. They made and painted fiberglass components such as mirrors, spoilers, etc for auto manufacturers.
What a wonderful person
Truly!
Wow my dad had a gold one when I was a kid. It was beautiful.
A true example of the Greatest Generation. I weep for America now.
There's still a lot of good out there. This generation was truly special, but I sincerely believe there are more people in America trying to do the right thing than the wrong thing. The media just amplifies the loudest voices, unfortunately.
What a treasure this man is!
In 1980 for my 6’th birthday my father took me to toys R us and I picked out an AFX race track: it had a Gold Camaro with a blue racing stripe and a silver Camaro. I always used the gold and blue one.
This was enjoyable to listen to.
Thanks...yeah, it's a pretty amazing story!
A waste water treatment operator here too! For 34 Years! Thank you sir.
Great man. Great interview.
Thank you, and agreed!
Good to know you Sir.
Good Man a Joy to see
My 1981 trans am was built at the Norwood plant ordered the car new in may of 81 got the car in June still have the car been garage kept since new never seen rain or winter the wipers have never been used it is starlite black with t tops & 4 spd manual !!!
seems to have been offered more positions in his youth then most people in a life time.
I saw this guy featured on a twilight episode, aliens were looking for someone who has seen and done it all.
This guy is from a time when Americans loved their country.
There was a time that it wasn't turned to 💩 with idiots, people actually liked having some intelligence.
Nowadays being smart is laughed at.
F U ! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Unfortunately the media just amplifies the loudest and dumbest voices. I truly think there are still more people out there that truly want to do the right thing rather than the wrong thing.
These are the types of people you need to be thanking for going to face on face WAR. Not just any body in the military. I have the same beliefs as him being in my 40s. All my gelus neighbors hate me bc I don't have a job. I drive a junkyard car I built & started working while I was in high school & inventing my savings I kicked back every paycheck.. I retired at the age of 37. No one can me a million dollars to get any job. I value my time and away from the light and sound palpation city I rather live off the land then commute to the dam grocery store. Thank u for interviewing this man. He should sign that car all these years later. Painting vehicles is different these days it is magnetic on by a robot. And drys in 20 minutes.
Now that is a great man.
My great uncle worked for fisher body for I believe 40 plus years. When he retired, he sold the farm and moved to Florida and latter restored air cooled VWs. His last car was a chevy corvair that was later sold after his passing 10 yrs ago
Very cool! Sounds like he did what he loved for his whole life! We should all be so lucky!
WHAT A GOOD MAN!!
ENOUGH SAID.
17TH TEXAS DIVISION
Agreed!
Man I would love to sit down with this old timmer and listen to his stories!
It always makes me sad for our country listening to these guys stories
@@mp-qz3pf why does it make you sad?
A real American to the core🇺🇸 I salute you my brother o7🇺🇸
Agreed!!
You gotta love this guy.
I could listen to his stories all day long!
@@OriginalMotorCar absolutely, he is to be cherished among those cars. Reminds me of my grandpa in Atlanta who worked at the Pontiac-Buick Olds factory. The Union guys and the stories!
Great story teller 👍🏾
Your a great man wow
No face masks protection, his very lucky to be alive ! Legendary person indeed !
Agreed. I'm sure a lot of those guys smoked a pack or two a day as well!
Great video!
Thank you! We're hoping to put many many more out!!!
They should change the title of the video to “The true definition of a working man”.
Haha. True!
Take away.
Love and care is more important than money.❤
Uaw has a good man in charge today. It would probably mean a lot if some of these old timers could join the conversation.
Morally sound man don’t get any better than that !
Agreed!
imagine if young people of today where like this gentlemen.
I think there are some out there, but yes, Roy was of a special generation!
12:06…. Work ethic over greed! Awesome
Totally!
