ROY Barry Dennis Roy (Age 73) Of Chilmark, MA, passed away peacefully on August 9, 2019 at Tufts Medical Center in Boston, MA. Born on September 6, 1945 in Norwich, CT, he was the only child of Emory and Bernice (Baril) Roy, and spent his youth in Taftville, CT. During these years Barry grew to love the scouting experience, eventually leading him to become an Eagle Scout. Barry was a graduate of Saint Michael's College in Colchester, VT ("67) with his summers spent working on Cape Cod in Falmouth. He treasured the many lifelong friendships that he made during his time at St. Mike's, his friends becoming his "Band of Brothers" for the next 50 years. After St. Mike's, he graduated from Albany Law School in 1971 followed by a Masters in Taxation (LLM) from Boston University School of Law. From 1974 to 1980 Barry worked in the Office of Chief Counsel for the Internal Revenue Service. He joined Deloitte as a tax partner in 1981, serving many multinational clients and was named National Director of Tax Quality Assurance in 1996. He retired in 2009. Barry was an avid supporter of many charities including The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis, Compassionate Care ALS, and the Aquinnah Lighthouse project of the Wampanoug Nation on Martha's Vineyard. He was also a Trustee of Saint Michael's College and chair of the investment committee. Barry loved his alma mater and was a dedicated alumnus through both his philanthropy and volunteer work. Barry was fondly called "The Bear" by those who knew and loved him. He was larger than life and lived with the biggest of hearts and immense generosity. He filled the room with love and laughter and became a beloved member of many families and more than a dozen godchildren. As an only child, he is survived by numerous cousins, their children, godchildren and dear friends who all became his chosen family. The sunsets are not quite as vivid and the moon not quite as bright over the Vineyard Sound without him, but lives are fuller for all who knew him. A celebration of life will be held at Saint Michael's College in Colchester, VT on October 12, 2019 at 11 a.m. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to Saint Michael's College, "The Barry Roy Memorial Fund".
