I think it is wonderful that this guest book will remain open permanently for others such as friends, family and many others to read all the wonderful comments written for Roger. Someone was very thoughtful and loving to make this decision. I know Roger and definitely all members of his family will always be in my treasured thoughts the rest of my life. I am certain there are many that will always remember the good times of their shared lives with Roger even way back into their school years together. I hope most definitely that they find this place to share their thoughts in time also if they did not know previously that it existed.

Roger and I went through several schools together,(kinda). We both attended St. Joseph's for a number of years and then we both headed to Bishop Kenny. Theresa and I graduated together and as life would have it I never saw Roger again and Thereas only at a few reunions. A great family and a lot of great memories. My brother Andy, use to play basketball with Roger at Kenny in 54 & 55. A great person and I know he's the captain of the team where he is. It's a pleasure to have known him . God's blessings to all the family.

Time flies and we lose contact with friends. I met Roger and family back in the mid sixties. Spent many years watching his children grow up, visiting with Harriet, Roger and children. Enjoyed time with all of them at their summer cottage in Fl. many, many years. It seems just like yesterday visiting in Jacksonville too. Time flies, gets away from us all. I have beautiful memories of the entire family. Would not trade those memories for anything. I am certain Mike, Doug and Becky that you will miss him so very much. I hope you know I love you all and miss seeing your smiling faces and hearing your laughter. Your Dad was a good ole guy and your Mom a sweetheart. You take care of her and give her a hug for me. God be with all of you. I will forever cherish and love the memories of a beautiful lifetime with all of you and the laughter we shared so often. Didn't we all have fun!! Your Dad's roast pork at the cabin was always the best!! Love, Helen Marlowe Tompkins and Family. PS: The boys send their love and want you all to know they are so very sorry and sad they just found out about your Dad. Keep safe and have a beautiful life.

The Alexander family is saddened to learn of the death of Roger. Our heartfelt sympathy goes to the entire family. My brother, Tom Alexander, retired from Southern Bell and knew and worked with Roger for many years. What a legacy this gentle man set for all of us. His dedication to his family is only surpassed by his strong Catholic faith, honesty, integrity and generosity.
Our memories of Roger while at Bishop Kenny are enumerable.
Our prayers are with the entire Strickland Family during this difficult time.

I have many wonderful memories of dear Roger, and they extend from his first days at JU. As a young man in my Humanities class, Roger was a star.
It was gratifying to follow his life, and note his success. It was also an honor for me to be the surprise participant in the Roast at his retirement from his many outstanding years in the corporate world. Perhaps the greatest reward and delightwas staying in contact with Roger in my own 52 years at JU.
Three weeks ago I received a call from Roger, and I treasure his message to me. I knew we were saying farewell, but I was well aware that Roger was leaving a bit of himself with all of us. We are better for having known Roger, and the world is also better because of him! He was a wonderful man and a dear friend. He will be missed!!!

He touched so many lives with his passion faith and dedication. May those who loved him be comforted in knowing that he will always be with you and with all of us in spirit . Surely he was blessed by your presence in his life. Most sincerely

Admiration, respect, and legacy … Those three words come quickly to mind when I think of Roger.
… Admiration: Having graduated in ‘65 from LeeHS, I was one of many thousands in Jax who knew well of and admired our local “bigger-than-life” high school, then college “all-american” sports hero and legend. And don’t we all now remember Roger’s paving the way and setting the stage for Rex, Artis, Pembrook...? I recall feeling “ga-ga” many years ago when I first met Roger who was my dear cousin Jarrett/Jeri’s boss at BellSouth (and later thinking, with her sister/my dear cousin Lee being Charlie Rice’s admin asst at Barnett … wow!!!)
… Respect: Then through the years, as I begin to appreciate what a truly dear and extremely loyal, loving, dependable, and helpful best friend Roger became and remained to Jarrett and her whole wonderful family, I developed a genuine and deserved sense of deep respect and greater admiration and appreciation for Roger.
… Legacy: Whether for his dominating scoring and rebounding; or at the plate / on the mound / at 1st base; or on the gridiron (also all-city in football); or as a “truly dependable” best friend, Roger could be counted on. What a go-to guy!! what a “man’s man” .. and what a “friend’s friend”!! Like his hero, John Wayne, Roger was “Bigger than life” … yet genuine and very real. What a legacy; what a man, hero, friend, … what a true legend!!

My Heartfelt Sympathy to the Strickland Family. I was sadden to hear the passing of Roger. I worked at Southern Bell and Bell South with him and I held the most respect for him, because he was always so kind and respectful. Rest on Roger a game well played.

Doug (Rebecca and Michael, too)
Y'all have been in our prayers and our thoughts. I lived in Secret Cove and went to BK with Doug. We always had a great time with Mr Strickland. A man is defined by his legacy and he left 3 amazing legacy worthy kids behind. His life was full and he was a blessed man. I've asked my Dad, Arnold Good 1930-2010, to keep an eye out for Mr Strickland. I'm sure they're already hitting the heavenly hot spots and being a forever guardian angel to his children, family and friends. Farewell Mr Strickland but never good-bye.
Doug, thanks for being my guardian angel on earth. Your Father should be very proud of the man you always were!
Love,
Jennifer, Marcia ( Grandma), Nicholas, Ethan Jett and Samantha Good

Our family loved Roger not only because of the loving, caring & special relationship he and my sister, Jeri, shared, but also because of the special goodness he had in his heart. He was a wonderful man and friend. We'll miss him but will keep his memory with us for a long, long time

My dad was Jim "Slick" Watson, so growing up around JU basketball games and of course, hearing all the great stories, I heard great things about Mr. Strickland. I'm sure now that he and my dad are having a great game and telling another story. My thoughts are prayers are with you. I know this is a difficult time for you.

Roger was the kind of person that everyone enjoyed knowing, and for some of us, working for! His sincere concern for others was always evident. I regret that I didn't stay in contact with him in recent years, but he has always been one of the people in my life that I respected most.

Roger was a very good neighbor and friend. He was truly a great athlete and was admired by everyone. We will miss seeing him in our neighborhood. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family,

As the Business Software Developer Dennis Peer stated, "One measure of leadership is the caliber of people who choose to follow you". Roger was a true leader and mentor proven by those who followed him in sports and in business. You will be truly missed but your legacy will always live on.

Becky (and Doug and Mike),
I had been trying to get in contact with you long before I heard this news. I just wanted to let you know we are all thinking of you & your family, and have you all in our prayers. Your dad will always have a fond spot in my memory of all the times he took us to the lakehouse-such a quiet, gentle man. I'm sending hugs from all your friends from the Assumption c/o'87 & Bk c/o '91. Please contact me via Facebook... Love, Tracee

Our family was, is and will be greater because of the life of Roger Strickland. Many lives are less because his life never touched theirs. I pray for the Strickland family in this time. Your loss is keen but the gift of Roger is one that has blessed so many. Take solace in the greatness of his life and the manner in which he lived as a Christian example to us all.

My thoughts and prayers are with the rest of my extended family, especially Becky, Doug, and Mike. Our summers at the lake as kids were far too long ago and far too short a time. Little Roger, as we called him, was an incredible inspiration to so many people in Florida. A Godfather to my sisters and me, Little Roger, you will be missed. Becky, Doug, and Mike....be strong and know that you are in our prayers. Love you guys.

Meeting Papa Strick was truly a blessing. I could only wish that I had met him years ago. My prayers for Papa Strick were sincere from my heart, and I will continue to lift the entire family up in prayer. Becky you have a lot of Roger Strickland’s strength in you. I am sure of that! Just know I am always here for you, and thank you for giving me the chance to meet your father. Those sparks in his beautiful eyes and that sweet kind spirit that I only so briefly got to see – will never ever be forgotten. He shared a hug with me – one that I will forever give back to you. Papa Strick is no longer suffering and he is at peace in Heaven. I pray for God to continue to watch over the entire Strickland family during this time of sorrow and for always. Much love to you all.

Life's journey is not to arrive safely at the grave in a well perserved body, but rather to slide in sideways totally worn out shouting..WOW..what a ride !
And that my dear family is what your father, companion, brother, uncle, cousin and friend accomplished. Roger had an outstanding ride !!
Mike, Doug and Becky in truth all that matters in the end is that you were loved by your Dad. Jeri, we thank you for the care and love you showed Roger, especially these past two years.
But most of all, thank you, for bringing out the "softer side" of our brother. We are sad that Roger has left us, but we are truly happy that we were part of his life.
Rest in peace, "Big Brother".
Your Siblings,
Theresa, Alice, Ed, Lynn, Brad, Donna

Over the past three years roger became a friend, a confidant, a teacher, and most of all a father. Getting to learn the right way...then roger's way (which was better than the right way). Roger not only welcomed me into his family, but into his life. I will miss our weekend football games, his gardening advice, his passion for his friends and loved ones, but most of all pulling into his driveway with him waiting on Becky and I to arrive with that smile. Roger helped mold everyone he touched into being the best they could be. His children and friends are some of the best people that one will ever meet. Roger, thank you...and may you rest in peace.
February 5, 2011
My memories of Roger go back to elementarty school. I attended St. Paul's through the 7th grade and then St. Joseph's of Loretto (not the one in Jacksonville that Roger attended.) I will treasure the memories of football and basketball games we played against each other. Roger was a superb athlete and proved that at Bishop Kenny and later. He was also a fine individual and great leader. He always strived to do the the best he could.

There are not words I can write that truly express how much loss I feel inside at learning of Roger's passing. I want to keep it upbeat cause that's what Rog always did. Roger W. Strickland was my mentor. As a young kid with hopes and dreams of someday being more than just a telephone guy, I had the INCREDIBLE good fortune to come under the watchful eye and eventual the tutiledge of this truly wonderful man. I would NOT have had a successful career at Southern Bell and then BellSouth were it not for the opportunities that Roger opened for me. He believed in me, and he saw something that I didn't even know I had. IN a word, he brought out the best in us all. The career I enjoyed I owe to Roger, and I am sure many many other telephone guys and gals are singing those same praises right now about him. Thank you, loving family for placing in his obituary exactly the words that I always have shared about my great friend and mentor Roger Strickland..... "he always placed the welfare of others above his own, refusing to compromise his principles regardless of the consequences to himself". Having worked for Rog directly for several years, I can personally attest to the lengths he would go to to protect us.... "his people". God Bless you Rog, I look forward to seeing you again.....some day soon down the road. Rande

There could never be enough words for me to express the sorrow I have at the loss of such a wonderful man. A man I loved and have always known simply as Uncle Roger. He was one of my father's dearest friends. For my entire life Uncle Roger was a beacon of light for our family. He was my rock when I lost my father...and I will forever cherish him for loving my father so unconditionally as only a true friend could. So many men have written of those that have died before us...both A. E. Housman and W.H. Auden come to mind..but I like to think Uncle Roger would have liked what Frank Sinatra said best, "I would like to be remembered as a man who had a wonderful time living life, a man who had good friends, fine family - and I don't think I could ask for anything more than that, actually." .....all my love to the Strickland family. -

Summers w/ the Strickland clan @ Lake Brooklyn will always be a treasure for both mom (Kathryn) and I. We were kids together, swimming & skiing by day and roasting marshmellows, & bar-b-queing by night, & creating mischief as often as possible. Little Roger was an inspiration to us all. He made the 'big time'! Now he truly has! It has been many years and yet what finds a place in our hearts never leaves us. I am grateful to have shared those days. The legacy Roger created will continue to inspire others for years to come. Much Love and blessings to all.

Howdy Duke.....This is the Sundance Kid...I hope our trails cross in heaven as I know now that you are riding with the Blessed Mother & Jesus Christ and you are happy. I know God's light is shinning on you. You are the most pleasant caring person that I have ever known. I wish you good days fishing, always shooting a perfect basket, and kicking the ball over the goal post. You have always hit a home run. May God bless you.....

Sincerest sympathies to Roger's family and friends. As an under classmate ('58/'59) I remember Roger well and looked up to him (actually and figuratively). I can remember even way back then his athleticism on the basketball court brought enjoyment to all who watched him. We always looked forward to going to all the games. May God's tender touch caress you all as you mourn Roger's passing.

It was with a great sense of loss when we heard of Roger's death.
We wanted to let you know that you have our greatest sympathy, and our hearts are truly saddened.
Roger was more than just a wonderful person; he was always so kind and considerate to us that we welcomed seeing him at every opportunity.
We often refer to Roger as Zach's angel on Earth -- now he is in heaven and Zach is very lucky to have such a wonderful guardian angel watching from above. One day I know Zach will be whole and playing basketball with Mr. Roger, laughing and having a wonderful time.--- No tubies to contend with ;-)There was an amazing conection between our little boy and Roger - we will never forget him.
Roger will always remain within our hearts, and we have included Roger and you in our daily prayers. May God give you strength.
Our sincere thoughts and prayers are with you.
With our deepest sympathy,

God Bless you for all you did, my memories go back to St. Joseph's, BK, then JU and years later our paths crossed at Southern Bell in Daytona Beach then in Atlanta. You touched so many lives, thank you. May God bless and be with you and your family as you look down on us pain free as you get ready to do more of the Lords work.

My sympathy to all the family. I met Roger in elementary school at St. Josephs. We were in Holy Rosary's CYO and when we went to BK I sometimes got a ride with Roger to school from Lake Forest. We talked a few times when he was in West Palm Beach, but I lost touch after that. I know he is no longer in pain and is smiling down on us. Sending my prayers for you to be comforted.

I still remember when Little Roger use to come over to my mother and fathers house when I was a young girl.They would play cards or games all night long. Back then, he didn't have much money to take Harriet on a date my parents explained, so that was the what they would do. He was playing basketball back then, (and I remember the wedding picture of them, my mother still has it)... and him moving. I was sorry he moved so far away or that I never kept in touch when I moved so far away and came back. The handsome young man I knew was a fun guy to be with.
Cynthia Lesperance, daughter of Bill and Elaine Lesperance. I am sorry for your loss, but in my mind I have a feeling my dad will be with him, he cared for him a great deal. [email protected].

Great memories of Roger and regret that I didn't revisit w/ him over the many years. As a Bishop Kenny freshman (he was a senior-57'/58), he looked out for me , provided helpful advice and I considered a good friend. Despite the age difference and his popularity, he always had time to talk-always a regular guy. My condolences to his family.

From "What's-Her-Name"..........To the best brother-in-law a gal could have. I love and miss you more than you know. Thank you for being you. Thank you for the positive influence you had on my children, especially MTB. Who by the way, now has the best guardian angel - ever. Your pecan pie will forever be on our holiday tables. The short time I had with you holds many special memories for me, I will miss our "work talks". Eddie not only lost a brother, but also his best friend. I'll stop now with all the "female talk"........ Love You Mel

Coach Lombardi once said, "after all the cheers have died down and the stadium is empty, after the headlines have been written, and after you are back in the quiet of your room and after all the pomp and fanfare have faded, the enduring thing that is left is the dedication to doing with our lives the very best we can do to make the world a better place in which to live." Mission accomplished. Yes my brother's life was truly a wonderful one.

My sincerest condolences to the Strickland family. Roger and I had known each other since 1950 ... at St. Joseph's Academy, at 7th and Market Streets. We exchanged hugs and greetings at the Bishop Kenny 50th graduation reunion. He was a fine, ethical man, who enjoyed life to its fullest. Mourn his passing; but; do not grieve him! He had an abundant, fulfilled life!
