Roger, my beloved baby brother, Jim & I will miss you so much, you will always be in our thoughts and prayers, We had so many fun times growing up, and when you & I & Tim got together we laughed our fool heads off at alot of the goofy things we did!!!! If I could have taken your place during the last 3 years I would have. You will be in my heart and mind always and I hope you & Mom & Daddy will be waiting for me when God calls me home. Love you so very much kiddo!!! Holly how can I thank you for being such a wonderful, loving wife to Roger these past 38 years, you were the LOVE of his life. May God help you during these difficult times. We love you and the kids so much, Jim & Rosemary Paulitch (Brownstown Twp. MI)

Holly,
I am so very sorry about Roger. I have many good memories of all the time we roomed together at Matador and at our office at Wall Towers. And we always exchanged at least an email or quick phone call on "our" birthday. Kathey's and my thoughts and prayers are with you.

Holly,

Our prayers and thoughts go out to and your family. I would sometimes join him with Don McClung and others for lunch and always enjoyed our talks about the oil business and football. I attended OSU and he would always raze me that OU would win over us every time. I too went through cancer treatment at MD Anderson in 2007 and he gave me nothing but kind words of hope and support. I tried to return the same every time I saw him at PBLA meetings and just around town. I enjoyed our friendship and I wish I had told him so, more.
