Roy Marland Harben age 81, (6 months,15 days short to 82nd birthday)  b: November 25, 1932  d: June 11, 2014  |  McNairy County, Guys, Tennessee


Roy comfortably passed this world into the arms of our Lord Jesus, June 11th, 2014.  He died resting in his favorite recliner at home at age 81. His wife Mary Frances thought he was sleeping until she shook him and discovered he was dead.  Arrangements were under the direction of Memorial Funeral Home, Corinth, Mississippi.  Roy and his brother-in-law Bobby Blankenship usually attended checker tournaments together.  They were regulars at the West Tennessee Strawberry Festival Tournament in Humboldt, TN, the Tennessee State Open in Lebanon, TN, and the Alabama State & District 5 Open in Haleyville, AL.  We lost a good friend and a checker player who was always ready to play a game.
