Roger was one of the good guys. He was always ready to make you laugh with the numerous jokes he told. I worked with him briefly but liked him immediately. Roger you will be missed.

Roger is already missed. He was a wonderful man, full of humor and compassion. We have all learned much from him and he leaves a hole in the heart of many at Cascap. My thoughts are with his family.

To all of Roger's Family,
Roger was a survivor! He took everything life handed to him and made it through with a smile and a joke on the other side. His last couple of months were spent working at Aberdeen where staff and residents got an opportunity to learn from him and to build a bond with him that will not be forgotten. May you smile when you think of him and find peace in your memories. He is missed already and will be in our thoughts always.

To Claire and Family,

Am so sorry to hear about Roger's passing. I've lost touch for so long and always wanted contacted Claire. Can someone please give me a call or send me a telephone number. I live in Florida now and my # is 561-350-9104. I hope that I hear from someone. My mother, Helen Brodsky was best friends with Claire and has been gone now for 10 years.

Thank you and my regards to everyone.

Roger was such an inspiration to so many people. He chose to help those who needed it rather than stand by. He was compassionate and patient and touched the lives of so many people. All of us at Cascap will certainly miss him!

Dear Roger,

I miss you so much already. I will miss our weekly chats, your wit and humor. Most of all I will miss your funny jokes - especially the ones you made up all on your own. I love you very very much. I only pray that you knew exactly how much you were cared for.

Love Always,
Bonnie

ps. its only fitting that I close with a joke (from one of your faves - rodney dangerfield)

"I tell ya when I was a kid, all I knew was rejection. My yo-yo, it never came back! "
