Roger was a sweet soul with a good heart. I was lucky to be your cousin and will always miss you. The entire Harris family has lost so much but strength through faith and family will be a comfort. Much love.

I will always remember playing music in the 1960s with Roger playing drums at his parents house up the street and in David Kramers basement and in our basement. He was a talented drummer and had the greatest personality. He will not be forgotten .

I can't believe I've known Roger, and Steve, for going on 19 years now. In all that time I've never known the Harris brothers to be anything but kind, courteous, and generous with their time, prayers, and advice. Roger will be missed and I offer my sympathies to his family.
