Not sure what to say?

I was sadden by the news of Roger's death. He was a man that loved his kids especially Luke. That was our morning conversation each day along with pictures to back up different events. I will truly miss our time together and the wealth of knowledge that went with him. I pray that GOD will hold his children close during this time of bereavement. Remember the good times to help see you thru and trust God for the rest.

Roger, was a very good friend, a friend that you could have any conversation with. I had worked with Roger on several projects as a civil engineer while was working with the City of Richmond. He had very good knowledge in storm drain system, storm water management and he knew the City's permit process very well. The City has lost a very good employee.
Peace be with you and your family.

I am going to sincerely miss you. Neville

It was a pleasure to work with Roger and he will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family during this difficult time.

Roger and I pulled together 50 artist in one week to form the Hunterdon Art Alliance during the 1980's. His life was about his children, then his art.We will sadly miss him for the rest of our lives. Lucky for us, we have his ART that will carry his spirit on. Love and Peace to all.

I have many great memories of working with Roger at Heritage Consulting Engineers. Occasionally, we would work in the field together. One Christmas at our company party Roger gave me one of his paintings. He was very talented and several pieces of his artwork are on the walls of our office. Roger was a good man and I'll miss him. Rest in peace.
