Not sure, but he did have ideas about staying here for a while, as 
quoted from Closer To Truth:

*Question:* A hundred years from now, what is the average life 
expectancy in America?

*Roy Walford:* I'll still be here…. Many people alive today--at least, 
the children--will live through the next century and on into the 
following one. The average life expectancy will be a hundred and fifty 
years.
