    Im so sorry for your loss. Roger will be missed. You all were my second family for awhile at a difficult time in life. I still cherish the memories to this day…and both laugh my butt off and cringe at the same time! Love and positive vibes to the whole family.

    Roger was one of a kind – his sarcastic sense of humor was the best! So many fun times over the years. Hugs to all of you.

    Roger was and will always be my BEST childhood friend. We explored boyhood from one end to the other of Red Oak Hills. Our shared love for the outdoors and rough n tumble approach made us virtually inseparable. He is my loyal friend. The memories we made are for life. We’ll be rocking ACDC and riding dirtbikes again brother! Love and miss you!
