Many sympathies to, Kendall, and your Mom and Chris. Your Dad served his Country and his family; now he serves with God. May perpetual light shine upon him….Peace, my friend!!
Roger is being missed by so many. He was always bigger than life but none more than in the past two years. I watched him change into a social butterfly always stopping to talk to everyone here at the apartments. He was a good friend. I could always count on him to tell me if I needed anything to let him know. He loved his family. He was quick to tell me stories of the past. He was always quick to tell me how to fix my car when I had a problem. He would tell me he would be the knowledge and I could do the work. Of course I would roll my eyes and laugh. Roger taught me many lessons in the two years I knew him and he is missed alot.
We are sorry for the loss of your dad. We know he loved you very much! We love you too!
