Devlin F. Royer, 20, of White Earth, North Dakota passed away at 4:20 PM at the Tioga Medical Center on Friday, March 11, 2022.

Devlin was born in Bismarck, North Dakota on September 8, 2001, to his parents Paul and Heather Royer. During his youth he attended grade school in Stanley, North Dakota, and started his high school education at Stanley High before transferring to Tioga High School.

He was a self-taught mechanic and loved to fix up cars to get them running again. He would often trade vehicles, fix them up to running smoothly, and then barter them off or sell them for a new project to start. “You’re doing it wrong, give me that wrench” was a staple phrase that would be heard anytime someone would want to step in and help him work on things! Devlin loved the outdoors, especially ice fishing and riding 4-wheelers. You could always catch him outside with his greatest loves, his animals. His horse “Kitty”, his dog “Tiny”, and his ducks were always around and didn’t stray too far from his side.

Devlin is survived by his parents, Paul and Heather Royer; brothers, Michael (Kayla) Patterson, Christopher Scholz, Paul Jr. Royer, Benjamin Royer; sister, Sarah (Tanner) Leifson; grandma, Virginia Lamberg; grandpa, Perry Harris; and many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins.

He is preceded in death by his grandparents, Alfred and Margaret Royer; grandpa, Melroy Englert; great-grandparents, Francis and Theresa Royer; and uncle, Mervill Nelson; and many other family members.
