Roger Lee Derrer

What a delightful man Roger was! He took me to a performance of La Boheme
and a behind the scenes tour at the Met. We had dinner at a glorious Cuban restaurant with some of his friends/ cast members . We did business together and always found much to share.An unforgettable soul!

To my Evil Twin,
Thoughts of you and Roger are forever imbedded in my mind,our first friends on the beach. Roger's warmth, smile and wonderful voice will be missed
Your always in my thoughts.
Much Love, Beverly

Although none of you will know me, I was a buddy of Roger's for all of our childhood days -- right through high school. His mom and my mom played bridge together and Roger and I were in musicals, plays, took dancing together and just plain hung out together. Although we have completely lost touch over the many years since college, I was shocked to hear of his death and send my love and prayers to his sister Sue and the rest of his family. It is difficult to imagine that he is gone, and...

I'm ashamed to say that I never got to know Roger as well as I would have liked, however, in the six months or so since we first met, he'd shown more kidness, generosity and friendship towards me than many people I've known my whole life. I feel blessed to have known him at all. My prayers go out to Roger's family and friends. God bless you.

We feel fortunate to have become a friend of Roger's during his time in Raleigh. He will be deeply missed by many. Our prayers and thoughts go out to his family and Pat.

Ian and Marit:
How sorry we were to hear about Roger. We often speak of him when talk begins on theater. He was so much fun and we missed him when he moved away. Please know that our prayers are with you and your family at this difficult time.
God bless you both.

Dear Pat and Family, Our prayers and thoughts are with you at this time of sorrow. Roger was one of the first people that we met when coming to the beach as snow birds. We continued to be friends over the years and greatly appreciate Roger and Pat's friendship. Love Linda and Ted

Sue, Ian and Marit:
So sorry to hear of Roger's death. I was a good friend of your mother and father, grandmother and grandfather, neighbors for many years.

Ian and Marit,
How sad we were to learn of Roger's death. May time's passing somehow help to ease your sorrow and loss, and may the memories left behind bring comfort for tomorrow. The Gustafson Family
