Roy L. LaGrave Jr., 65, of Prospect, passed away Saturday, January 1, 2022 at Waterbury Hospital. Roy is the husband of Sandra (Pfeiffer) LaGrave and father to sons Christopher, Ceferino and Marc Carrion. He was born January 23, 1956 in Waterbury, one of the ten children of the late Roy L. and Joan (Gagnon) LaGrave.
Roy was raised in Naugatuck and then went on to proudly serve his country in the US Navy as a SeaBee. He was honorably discharge in 1979 and first worked as a lathe operator for Pratt and Whitney Aircraft before moving on to work in the family business.
Roy was an avid collector; tag sales and road trips for “finds” were great weekend fun. He collected Budweiser steins and was in search of the last missing one from 2013 to complete his collection. His family did find and purchase it as a gift for Roy but sadly he did not live to see it.
Left to honor his love, life and memory are his wife Sandie, sons Christopher, Ceferino and Marc as well as his eight brothers and sisters: Rochelle (Louis) Glick, Sally (Floyd) Hafford, Ronald (Deb) LaGrave, Steven (Kathy) LaGrave, Sandra LaGrave, Richard (Donna) LaGrave, Regina (Israel) Lebron, and Stacy Pino, as well as several nieces and nephews, cousins and friends. Roy was predeceased by his brother Scott LaGrave.
