Roy L. Duggan, born August 5, 1941, in Wheeling, WV passed away after many years of dealing with Parkinson's Disease. Roy always felt like a pioneer and credits his last 11 years to his doctors and research surgery he received in 1999. Roy moved to Pensacola in 1966 and worked for Escambia Chemical and Air Products and Chemicals in Pace, FL. Roy was a member of Escambia Lodge # 15, the Scottish Rite F&AM, York Rite, Hadji Shrine, and FL # 9 OES. He was preceded in death by his parents Leroy J. Duggan and Pauline Duggan and his sister, Judy Cruny. He is survived by his loving wife and best friend, Harriet Duggan; his son, Guy (Sandra) Duggan; daughter, Pamela Duggan; step grandchildren, Stephanie Shaver, Teddy (Michelle) Shaver and 3 step great grandchildren, Brian Sean, Adreonna and Kyleigh; aunt, Betty (Bob) Sayre; uncles, Buck (Mary) Tennant, Dick (Debbie) Tennant; niece, nephew and many cousins. Roy's early days in WV prepared him for his 45 years in FL/AL. From the mountains of WV to the hills of AL Roy was an avid outdoorsman fishing the flatlands of FL and spending time on the rivers and woods of AL. Roy loved spending many days in Camden, AL, especially Christmas, with family, friends, and the family dogs. Vacations were spent outdoors doing what he loved, from the Southeastern US to Canada and Alaska. Roy enjoyed his years of scouting from a boy of 7 years in WV to his continued participation as an adult volunteer at the troop level, high adventure he participated in and adult training for 30+ years. Few men are able to spend their lives and earn their livelihood doing the things they love but Roy was able to do just exactly that. Roy worked for Air Products (formerly Escambia Chemical) in Pace, FL. During his 30 years he worked in many areas of the Plant mainly in Environmental and Government Relations. Twenty of those years he was a leader in the Environmental work at Air Products. With a push for cleaner air and water in 1970 three biological cleansing ponds were built. From these three ponds developed a retention system of 99 acres. In 1972 the FL Game and Fresh Water Commission designated Air Products property a state wildlife sanctuary. It was the first such effort in the state and believed to be the first in the nation. Flocks of non-migratory Canadian Geese were introduced into the sanctuary. Joining them were migrating geese and wild ducks. Members of the Audubon Society, headed by Lt. Col. C.W. Milmore (deceased), were very active in counting and identifying the species of birds visiting the sanctuary. In 1975 Air Products received an award for Outstanding Achievement Conservation and Environmental Protection from the Francis M. Weston Chapter of the Audubon Society. In 1976 Roy received the L. L. Hedgepeth Award from the FL Pollution Control Association for outstanding individual performance in industrial environmental protection. Roy was a co-founder of the FL Chemical Industry Council (FCIC), which was the state organization partnering with the Chemical Manufacturing Association (CMA) and helped to establish that association as the respective voice of the chemical industry in FL. He served as President of the FCIC from 1985-1987 and again in 1990. Roy represented the FCIC and his company in solving legislative and regulatory problems in environmental areas. In June, 1987 Roy was appointed to the State Emergency Response Commission by Governor Martinez where he served until Nov. 1991. In 1975 Roy hosted a weekly television program on Channel 3 (ABC) covering outdoor and related environmental topics, "Outdoors with Roy Duggan." In 1979 Roy was selected by the US State Department to host a Soviet delegation and participate in a technical exchange of information centered around major advances in environmental and abatement techniques.
