He entered Princeton after his junior year at Summit (N.J.) High School. During his freshman year he was an announcer for WPRB and a photographer for The Daily Princetonian. For the next three years he was active in Triangle. He majored in philosophy.
Following graduation he served in the Navy from 1962 to 1964 and then attended Rutgers, earning a law degree in 1968. Roy practiced transnational corporate law for 25 years. Becoming disenchanted with the practice of law, he earned a master’s degree in social work from Hunter College and became a psychotherapist. A recovering alcoholic, clean and sober for decades, he worked with members of the LGBTQ community involved in Alcoholics Anonymous, helping many lost adults become successful and productive professionals.
He is survived by two younger sisters, Susan Young Breed and Barbara Young Arner; nieces Heather R. Breed and Lara Breed Johnson; and nephew Ian Traywick Young. The class extends its condolences to them all.
