Dearest Tony and Kim,

We know that you are deeply saddened by the loss of your Dad, Roger Day. He is gone too soon! We well remember the day that Roger and your Mom, Alma, became engaged. We were happy that our precious niece had found someone she truly cared about. When they were blessed with the two of you, their life was complete.

Both of you represent the best of both of your parents and your lives are a legacy to them. Continue to make them proud.

We love you both
Uncle Phil and Aunt Connee

I am shocked and saddened by Sempai Roger's passing. I just found out today when I walked into the dojo (after a long absence) expecting to see him as always. He was a wonderful, kind man. He will surely be missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

The youth karate class keeps asking if Mr. Roger is on vacation and we tell them he's training in heaven now. The parents and black belts miss Roger's presence every single day at the dojo. We miss you always.

Roger was my friend from junior high school to senior citizen. I will miss his humor, his wit, his passion about teaching karate and his adventurous spirit. He loved you Kim, Tony, Shayla, Jasmine, Jada and Jayden and was so proud of you. May God comfort you through this difficult time.

To Roger's Family, May strength from God's love carry you through this difficult time. Roger was an amazing person and our time finding out we were cousins was just too brief. I loved visiting with he and Anita, walking through the redwoods, visiting the acquarium in Monterey, CA and enjoying that great meal of Mexican food. You will forever be in my heart! I love you cousin!!

Roger touched us all. A man who told you how it "was" A man who knew a loud laugh would be contagious to all. Mr Day will forever be a part of my heart and my memories.
To all of Rogers family, I feel your loss also.
He was loved.
