Roy C. Shelton, age 62, of Iberia, passed away on Saturday, January 21, 2023, at his home.  He was born in Tuscumbia on December 29, 1960, son of the late William Kenneth and Geraldine (Long) Shelton.

Roy was employed as equipment operator with Camden County Public Water District #4 for over 30 years.  He was a founding member and volunteer with the Brumley Fire Department.  Roy was an active member in the community who never knew a stranger and was always willing to lend a hand to those in need.  Roy's nieces will miss their visits with uncle Roy and the special treats that he would bring them on Sundays.  He loved his close-knit family, especially his son, Bennett and his nieces, who were the greatest joys of his life.

He is survived by his son, Bennett Shelton of Lake Ozark; brother, Ray (Wendy) Shelton of Brumley; nephew, Kenny (Janet) Shelton of Brumley; niece, Melissa (Travis Hibler) Shelton of Brumley; great nieces, Makenna Shelton, Brayleigh Shelton, Kinslee Shelton, Willow Hibler, and Brooklynn Hibler; three stepchildren, David, Thomas, and Sarah; and numerous cousins, family, and friends.

In addition to his parents, he was also preceded in death by his son, Aaron William Shelton.

Visitation will be held from 4 to 6 p.m., with services immediately following at 6 p.m., on Thursday, January 26, at Fancher-Rekus Funeral Home in Iberia with Rick Russell officiating.  Interment will be held at a later date at Mt. Union Cemetery.
