My mother's brother and my uncle Roy Petty. When in the Navy I, with buddies, visited him in Carmel, NY, a lot. He was a paratrooper on D-Day and director of Clearpool Boys Camp, which was for NYC innercity boys in the summer. He even stood up for Ed Sullivan annually.
I think he was generally known as "Bill" but us kin-folks, he was Roy to us.
