I knew Roy as 'Carina's Dad' before I knew Roy. But when I visited the family home in Ingeniero Luiggi, I knew I had met a person who gave me the warmest of welcomes with the minimum of fuss, taking me into his home and giving me a real feel for life in his home patch. I was so glad to see Roy in the UK, enthusiastically taking part in the chaotic life of a London tourist and really being the kind leader of the trusty tribe. But, for me, he will always be the proud person who cared about his home, the land and, of course, his lovely family.
Version en castellano traducida por Carina
Conoci a Roy como el 'papa de Carina' antes de concerlo como Roy. Pero cuando visite su casa de familia en Ing Luiggi supe que habia conocido a una persona que me dio la mas calida bienvenida sin el menor problema, invitandome a su casa y dandome una experiencia autentica de la vida en su lugar del mundo.
Me alegro tanto ver a Roy en el Reino Unido, participando entusiasmado del caos de la vida del turista londinense y siendo el lider amable de su tribu fiel. Pero para mi, Roy siempre sera la persona orgullosa que cuido de su hogar, su tierra y por cierto su encantadora familia.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
Yo soy yo y vos sos vos, lo que fuimos para cada uno es lo que aun somos.
Hablame en el modo facil en el que siempre me hablaste.
Porque debo estar fuera de tu mente simplemente porque no podes verme mas?
La vida significa aun todo lo que siempre significo, es la misma vida que siempre fue.
