So very sorry to hear of the loss of my cousin-in-law. I was in his and Joy’s wedding and Roger had been a presence in my life for decades. He will be missed. My deepest condolences to his immediate family, and to the many friends and associates who will also feel this loss.
Love you Uncle Roger. I’ll miss our Christmas Eve’s together. But I’m so happy my special memory of our last Christmas Eve spent together is of you & my youngest daughter, Elyse, playing together with her dolls & pretend makeup. 💙
My deepest sympathy to “Mrs. P”, Kim & Sue. So many memories came flooding in when Sue told me of her Dad’s passing. They were the first house (& prob only) in the neighborhood who had MTv, which meant we were ALWAYS there. We had ALOT of fun and were always welcome! Love you all!
