He was a basketball coach at White County High School, and led the team to two state championships. He was also the co-owner of a real estate and auction company.

Perhaps, what Roy Whited was most known for, was being a pastor at DeRosset Church of Christ in Sparta, Tennessee. So when Roy didn’t show up to Sunday service on May 5, 2024, it was clear something was wrong.

Today, human remains were discovered in the Bon Air community not far from where Roy lived.  The remains have not been identified yet but some in the community was wondering if indeed it is Roy’s remains.  Of course it will be days before the autopsy is complete and DNA results are in – but many are holding out hope that Roy’s disappearance may have been answered.
