Not sure what to say?

Uncle Roger, I wish I could of got to know you better, but I think we all take time for granted... You are very Loved and missed and you memory will be kept alive forever. I love you

I've seen and heard the impact my Uncle Roger has had on the people around him and my family. He is a reminder of how sacred life truly is. Everyone has spoke kind words of how extraordinary he truly was. He dedicated his life to the lord, and will forever be remembered by that. RIP Uncle Roger. You are greatly missed. We still love you and you will forever be in our hearts.

I have heard many expressions of sympathy from former classmates of Roger. Most have said they remember Roger as someone who loved to have fun, and enjoyed life!
I remember my cousin as a smiling, little trickster. I remember when he fell off his front porch, while riding a tricycle, and the porch was only about a foot off the ground, and he shattered his elbow. I remember the summers when he came to visit his Aunt Shirley, (my mom), and hang out with his cousins, Scotty and Ernest. He...

DEEPLY impacted by this tragedy, I pray that the grief (both personal, & collective) would draw EACH of us to cling to the singular COMFORT and HOPE found in Christ:
"Come unto ME, ALL you who are weary and heavy laden, and I WILL give you REST... LEARN from ME... and you WILL find REST for YOUR souls. For MY yoke is EASY and My burden is LIGHT."
- Matthew 11:28-30

As I do not know you or any member of your family. I just wanted to say what a tragic way to lose your son, brother, father and friend. May the Lord bless you with comfort during this time.

WE DID NOT SEE YOU FOR MANY YEARS BUT THOUGHT OF YOU OFTEN.MY CHILDREN & I WILL HAVE NOTHING BUT HAPPY MEMORIES OF YOU.MANY PRAYERS & THOUGHTS FOR YOU CHILDREN.WITH MUCH LOVE

I did not really know Mr.Cherry, but i am a friend of one of his sons. Let God guide him and keep his family safe and well. Colin, i am so sorry. Mr. Buchanan said a few things on Friday, which really touched me and Erin. We hope to see you on Monday.

To my brother whom I am going to miss very much. You will always have a special place in my heart to help me remember the happier times.

Your Brother, Ricky

My prayers are with Nolan's family and children. He was so proud of his kids and talked about them all the time. He was a good friend to me years ago and that is what I will remember about him.
