Roger was a great friend of mine. I was the first person to show him how to fly CP helicopters and get into FPV flying. we shared a huge amount of love for RC anything. one time we even took a camera and placed it on a car so we could drive it while looking at the screen around my neighborhood. lots of reengineering of other aircraft. I remember the last time we talked , we were going to make a viral video to jump start his youtube channel. Rest In Power my dear CHIP.

Dearest Brother and friend. No one could match your energy and enthusiasm for life Rog. You are a smart, talented, caring and loving person. One of your favorite quotes was " You should know something about everything, and everything about something."
We love and miss you so much...There's no one I would have rather grown up with. I'll always have your back no matter what brother. You're now a legend and your memory and stories will live on forever. All your stuff will be waiting...

Shalline....though I never knew your children on a personal basis.....I will never forget you pulling them in a wagon in Veneta. I am so very sorry that you are going through this.....and praying for God to hold you in his caring embrace, giving you comfort at this time.

A glooming peace this morning with it brings; the Sun for sorrow will not show his head: go hence, to have more talk of these sad things; some shall be pardon'd, and some punished: it for never was a story of more woe than this of Juliet and her Romeo. You were my forever....wait for me, ill see you soon

I always admired Roger for having the courage to be himself. Smart, wicked sense of humor, loving, giving and one of a kind. We will meet again in Heaven! Love you, aunt Kathi.
