Roy Laccone was born on January 2, 1960, in Waterbury, CT. He was a proud veteran of the United States Air Force. After his military service, Roy transitioned to the Federal Aviation Administration as an Air Traffic Controller before retiring in 2002. Roy enjoyed staying busy by renovating his home, working on cars, hosting friends at his home, and riding motorcycles with his wife.
