Roy was from Oakland, California and was born in 1926. He died in 2016 – he was 90 years old. He lifted in WABDL for a short time. He left a lasting impression with his spirted platform demeanor. He had the energy and enthusiasm of a man much younger. He holds the WABDL California State Record in the deadlift of 192.7lbs at 85-89/181lbs set on August 4, 2012. He entered four meets and he conducted himself with dignity and class. He was somebody that couldn’t be missed. If you saw him, you would remember him.

We will post a pic of Mr. Kahn soon.
