Judith and the Dennis Family,
I am so sorry to hear about Roger's passing. He would always brighten up my day when he would come in to see me at the dealership with his humor. Also will not forget that he grew the hottest peppers I have ever had. He will be truly missed. He was a good man.

Judith, I am so sorry to hear abour Roger's passing. I remember your lovely parties when he was at AHS and Roger's request that I make quiches. I still have and occasionally make his mother's recipe for squash casserole. When I do I always think of Roger. He was a good colleague. Marjorie McBride Delaney

Judith,
Sorry to read about Roger's passing. I have fond memories of our "adventures," working together in the English department at Avon High in the 70's! (Wow, how time passes.) I also recall visiting his beloved greenhouse.
Hope all of your fond memories provide much consolation at this sad time.
Most sincerely,
Marc Sscher
