Roy Stilling

November 16, 1966 - June 16, 2022

Roy Peter John Stilling, 55, of Sleepy Hollow, NY, passed away on June 16, 2022. He was predeceased by his parents Patricia (Eade) Stilling, and Peter Stilling. He leaves behind his beloved wife Suzanne LaBelle, brother Tony Stilling-Warren, brother-in-law Christopher Stilling-Warren, sister-in-law Denise LaBelle and brother-in-law Ryan Hudson, nephew Jonathan and niece Rowan. Roy worked for over 30 years as a web developer, most recently as a senior engineer for Spotify, a job he loved. A voracious reader, especially of science fiction and history, Roy was a lover of flags, large scale Lego projects, music, and all things transit (but especially trains and London buses). He had the geopolitics and history of most of the worlds nation-states memorized, and served as a mobile encyclopedia in a pre-Wikipedia world, definitively ending speculative debates for loved ones. Ever a wallflower, he nevertheless spent his early life active in local politics and the decades before his death traveling the world with his beloved wife Suzanne. He was a gentle, generous and kind-hearted man, who will be missed greatly by all who knew and loved him. Memorial services will be private.
