I will always remember Roger walking Sidney rain or shine.
With deepest sympathy,
I met Roger through his wonderful wife Dianne. I had the pleasure of working with Dianne. She would encourage me and always left a positive impact in any room she was in. Roger was her compliment and my co-workers invited me out to Steeple Chase. Here is a picture of Roger and me at Steeple Chase. This was a grand day. I’ll play some Andre 3000 in your honor sir.
With my heart felt Sympathy for Rogers family and my great respect for Roger and his many accomplishments.
He was one of a kind. I will miss his smile, his always entertaining stories, and his big, warm hugs. The last time we visited it was over Mexican food and tequila. That is how I will remember him.
