Not sure what to say?

Thans Roger for being such an example for all of us to follow.

Remembering a very kind clever and chivalrous young man I met at a Swedish language course in Lund, Sweden in the summer of 1972. He was an obvious leader even then and looked after our little multinational group of Germans, English and Americans in a grave and kindly way. He went on from Sweden to Poland to evangelise. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.

We were so very sorry to learn of Roger's passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of the family in their time of loss. May God's strength and peace sustain you in the days ahead. With sincere condolences,
John and Judy Meads, Southampton, ENGLAND

Dear Magnuson Family, You will continue to be in our thoughts and prayers. For two decades (ATI) God greatly used your husband/father in our lives and many others by his inspiration and Biblical teaching. Matt.5:3,4; Rom.8:35-39. "Well done good and faithful servant." God bless you as you carry on a great legacy. Love in Christ from another Magnuson Family (Terry,Debbie, Greg&Laura,Beth,Brad,Nathan (Indianapolis, IN)

Our deepest sympathies for the family of a Godly man we love. We will not forget him and the glory his life and testimony brought to the Lord Jesus Christ.

We offer our condolences and lift you and your family up in prayer. We were regularly encouraged at Big Sandy by Roger's teaching. May God give you continued strength and comfort. We are so sorry. William and Katherine Hutto

I never met this dear Godly man, but I felt like he was a friend when I ever listened to him on Embassy institute. He has inspired me and challenged me so much! I am saddened that he has passed away, but we will all see him soon. He will continue to be a Father, Pastor, teacher in my life and whatever I have learned through him I will also pass on to my four children and wife. I am praying for the Magnuson family.

Pastor Magnuson was a great inspiration to our family as he was so diligent to minister to families in the inner city. He was one of the most influential men in my life - almost like a father figure or older brother. We will greatly miss him and we have Betsy and family in our prayers.

Roger was very kind to me when I worked for the family, briefly, many years ago. My sympathy for your loss.
