Mr. Roy Grose of Procious celebrated his 100th birthday on March 10 with his family.

WWII Veteran Roy James Grose of Procious celebrated 100th birthday on Wednesday, March 10. Looking back over the last century, he has a lot to celebrate.

Mr. Grose grew up in Clay County and has one daughter, Jo Bauman, and one granddaughter, Jama Whiittaker.  He has two great-grandchildren, Amanda Mattix and Cole Whittaker, and three great-great grandchildren, Gabe Mattix, Lucy Mattix, and Hollyn Whittaker.

Mr. Grose is a WWII Veteran, pictured here in uniform.

Mr. Grose served on a submarine chaser, or subchaser, in the Philippines and on the PC509 through Panama and Guantanamo Bay.  He has a passion for hunting and has enjoyed many hunting trips with his father, Jesse Grose.  He is a member of Liberty Advent Christian Church, where he taught Sunday school for 70 years, but unfortunately he hasn’t been able to attend recently.

The family celebrated this special occasion with a small gathering and cake.  They would like to send a special thanks to his caregiver, Elisabeth Samples, for all her daily support.

Happy Birthday Mr. Grose!
