With solemn hearts, we announce the passing of Roy McMechen of Delanson, New York, whose presence will be deeply missed, having departed on April 4, 2025 at the age of 74. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Roy McMechen to pay them a last tribute.

As we bid farewell to this luminous soul, let his loved ones carry forward the torch of his memory, illuminating the path ahead with the warmth of his love and the brilliance of his spirit.

He was also cherished by several nieces, nephews and many friends.
