He was born on August 13, 1955 in Terrell, Texas. He has been married to his lovely wife, Cindy, who has been by his side for more than 41 years, most of which they resided in Campbell, Texas.
Windell “Roy” Toland was the owner of Roy’s Muffler in Greenville, Texas for many years. It is there where he has met some of his lifetime friends. He also served our country through the United States Navy from 1972-1976. He will be greatly missed from many people.

Although they were not biological children, he treated them like his own: Lacey Davis and husband, Jef of Campbell, James Singleton, Jonathan Klutts of Campbell and many nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his father, Raymond Toland, brother, Clint Toland and sister Nancy Hite.
Many of us can learn from the life that he led. He never passed up someone in need. He spent a lifetime serving the Lord and now he finally gets to meet him.
