Susan (Gilmore) Roy passed away suddenly after a short battle with cancer Friday, September 6, 2013. She was 56, born on June 2, 1957 in Western Australia. She is the daughter of Thelma (Young) Gilmore and the late Allan Gilmore of Western Australia. She leaves her children, Nicholas Roy, 26 of Shrewsbury, Alexis Roy, 24 of Worcester and her ex-husband, Vincent Roy of Franklin. In Australia, she leaves her mother, Thelma, stepfather John Johnston, brother, Graham Gilmore and his wife, Margaret along with many nieces, nephews and cousins.
Raised and educated in Australia, she was a graduate of Balcatta Senior High School, class of 1975. Once here in the United States, Sue earned her LPN degree from Assabet Valley LPN Program in Marlboro. She worked many dedicated years in the health care profession. Her warmth and kindness was superseded only by the love for her children. She was happiest when she was giving and felt most accomplished when she was caring for her family, friends, and her beloved kitties. She will be sadly missed by all who knew her. Sue was also an avid reader, lover of writing, and a passionate gardener.
At the Family’s request funeral services will be private. Memorial contributions in Sue’s name may be made to the Cancer Society, 30 Speen Street, Framingham, MA 01701.
