Roger Fachini

Hi Jen & Brad,
Your Dad's service was perfect.He would have loved it. I can't believe he is gone. Rog was a good friend. After he retired from the assessors office we still kept in touch, my email was always full of articles on life, real estate and jokes. I will miss him. He loved you very much and enjoyed sharing his adventures in New York. I am so sorry for your loss.

Jen and Brad, I am so sorry to hear of your loss! Our deepest sympathies to you both. I will miss my classmate from the first graduating class of Mt. Greylock High. Your Dad was a lot of fun and always shared his good humor and broad smile. I will cherish his memory.

I met Roger while he was the Assessor for North Adams - he was a great guy and will be missed by all that knew him. Later, after he retired and joined the Real Estate Company - I would run in to him from time to time at the property he was selling - and as always he always went the extra mile to help, share a story and just make you smile with a quick witted remark. My sincere sympathy to Rogers family.

Respectfully,
Laura Catalano

Roger was my neighbor when I lived at Stratton Hill and I remember him being the first to welcome me and make me feel at home. That was truly special to me as a young boy coming all the way from Louisiana not knowing anyone ... He made me feel like I had known him all my life --- like he was a father to me ... (and he showed it in his special way when I broke the rules that one time and had a vehicle on the lawn)

I am so sad to see you go, Roger ... I greatly loved and appreciated...

Jen,
We were so sad to hear about your dad. We had a lot of good times with him through the years. We know how much he adored you. You are in our prayers.

We were so sorry to read of Roger's untimely death. Ed and I could tell you story after story about him, especially as he was very close to my Dad, Bob Steele.
But, we will share our first story of Roger. In the summer of 1976, Ed wrote a nature column for the Transcript's Summer Scope. I did the illustrations. We did this for three years. But, the FIRST congratulatory and accolades letter came from Roger!
We have a great fondness for him and know first hand how many lives he...

Roger was one of "my assessors" when I worked with the DOR/Bureau of Local Assessment. 'Trekking' the 70++ miles to North Adams was always an adventure; I always so looked forward to working with Roger. He had a delightful sense of humor and a true zest for life. My condolences to you, Jen

Jen and Brad, our thoughts are with you at this very difficult time. We cherish are memories of Roger, he was a very special person and a good friend.

Our heartfelt thoughts and sympathy are with you. What a shock! Roger was a great guy and very helpful last year when we had to sell my mother's house long distance.
