When I heard the news about Roger I was devastated...Roger was a very good friend of my dads and I know right now my dad isn't taking the news to well...I didn't know Roger very well but I know that he was a good man and he was taken from us way too early...Roger you will be greatly missed and my thoughts and prayers go out to his family...
