My all-time favorite manager, who skippered during my favorite era in a lifetime of baseball and Giants fandom. Sage manager, master pitching coach, a model for human relations excellence and the abilities to exude and evoke optimism, and a mentor and leader who fostered the best possible outcomes from those who he influenced. We really loved him in the SF Bay Area! He saved our Giants, and his delightful presence and noble examples were beyond wonderful.

We will miss you, never forget you, and we'll always be grateful, Roger.

I’m sorry for your loss. May your memories give you peace and comfort of your loved one. Words fall short of expressing my sorrow for the loss of your loved one. May GOD be with you all during this difficult time. 1 Thessalonians 4:14For if we have faith that Jesus died and rose again, so too God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep in death through Jesus.
