> About Roy Avers
> 
> Roy Avers was previously a computer consultant and businessman who studied theater arts in college and sang with the Louisville Opera. He started doing volunteer work as a textbook narrator, but was directed to APH because his voice was too emotive. Roy read his first book for APH in 1971. He became APH’s first Alexander Scourby Award winner in 1990 and has read over 1,750 titles for the National Library Service (NLS).
> 
> Avers, 82, died at his home in Sellersburg, IN on November 13, 2015. 
> 
> Roy’s family says that his proudest moments and his most fulfilled time were spent in his years as a Talking Book narrator for the American Printing House for the Blind. He loved going to work; he believed in the mission he supported.
> 
> Join Roy’s family and friends for a Celebration of Life in the Museum of the American Printing House for the Blind, 1839 Frankfort Avenue, on November 21, 2015 from 2:00-7:00. Memorial gifts may be sent to the American Printing House for the Blind, 1839 Frankfort Avenue, Louisville, KY 40206.
