Roy was born in Atlanta, GA on August 4, 1937 to William Roy McCollum Sr. and Eunice Catherine Gilliland McCollum. He was an only child who attended Northside High School and enjoyed playing golf at North Fulton and Bobby Jones Golf Courses.

Mr. McCollum met his wife of almost 50 years, Mary Madlyn Coupland, at Florida State University, where he studied business, attending on a golf scholarship. He and Madlyn's first date was the beginning of a very successful career in sales!

Following a short stint at Sears & Roebuck, Roy began his 53 year career with Merrill Lynch in 1963 and retired in 2016. He had a vast base of clients who trusted him with their financial future.
