Requiescat in Pace, W. Royal Stokes

This is a message from Neale Stokes, Royal’s son.

On May 1st, 2021, William Royal Stokes passed away at home in Elkins, West Virginia, surrounded by his two sons, Sutton and me, and his wife, Erika.

He had experienced health issues for some time, but his final illness moved quickly and his passing was comfortable and peaceful under the care of home hospice.

We have no immediate plans for a public memorial, but we will update this page with that information if it becomes available.

We will maintain this site indefinitely, and anyone who wants to contact our family may do so using the contact form on this site–these will be checked by myself and/or my brother Sutton.
