I'm sorry I'm so late in posting this but the monument has been ordered for Little Roy Wiggins. His grave will be marked appropriately with a bronze marker on a granite base. On the marker will be the words Little Roy above the larger Ivan Leroy Wiggins and below it will be Mr. Ting a ling. I wish to thank everyone who rallied with donations enough to make this possible. If there is any excess money, it will be sent to his widow Faye who is overwhelmed by everyones kindness. I will post when the monument is in and set. Again thanks.

Mike, I'm glad to see my hero, and former employer, will get a memorial and not just be another unkown in his final resting place. |

I am so elated over this announcement, Like Jack Stoner Roy has been my hero since 1946. You can bet I will make a trip to see it.
I was unaware of the opportunity to contribute and certainly would have had I known.
God Bless you all for making this happen.

"Little" Roy is a steel guitar giant. Bobby Garrett once told how much he influenced him. This is a truly fitting tribute to a legend. |
