Roy was born and raised in Ocala, Marion County Florida. Upon graduation from Ocala Forest High School, Roy worked for family as the Service Manager and Billing Office Manager in their large auto repair shop in town. Roy understood hard work and wanted to expand his horizons, so after 20 years in the Automotive Business, with a first-born child on the way, he switched gears and entered Real Estate. In 2001, Roy and his Mother opened Duckett Realty and it quickly grew to overseeing and managing over 120 Agents with 3 Offices. Roy went on to obtain his Real Estate Brokers License. In 2004, Roy joined the Marion County Home Builders Association and quickly moved up the ranks. He was nominated as Area 5, Vice President of the Florida Home Builders Association and Spike Member for the National Home Builders Association. In 2008, Roy was also appointed to the Marion County Planning and Zoning Board. 

In 2013, Roy was contacted by his long-time high school friend, Todd Walker, who was living in Punta Gorda, Florida and asking if he would entertain moving to Punta Gorda and getting in the Construction Business. Roy replied “I don’t know anything about construction.” - to which Todd replied “I know, but that’s the easy part. You know how to talk honest to people, Clients and Subcontractors, and that's the key!” Two weeks later, Roy and his family moved to Punta Gorda, he started working with Todd, and a well-balanced team was born. Roy is committed to treating each and every person he encounters with respect and the truth, whether it’s the Client, a Business Acquaintance, or a Subcontractor – they ALL become friends! Roy’s function as the Managing Partner of Peace River Construction is to listen to our Clients, balance the project to the penny for each Client and Subcontractor, and to communicate - ensuring that our Customers are treated fairly every time.
