Not sure what to say?

Roger was the most wonderful man. During my junior and senior years at the City University of New York I worked part-time for Roger in the Admissions Office. He was always so fair and understanding, and treated everyone from students to faculty, to visitors with the utmost care and respect. I just now discovered that he had passed at a far too early age, and I am deeply touched by his loss.

Many years have passed since were were friends bringing up kids in Weston. We fondly remember those days and Aaron reminded us that you and Roger took him skiing for first time. We were shocked learning of Roger's death from the WSJ a few weeks ago. So young - so untimely - so accomplished. Being with family is very important - nice to read of son Roger's and Robyn's families.

Marie and family, so sorry to hear of Roger's passing. Please know Chris and I have you all in our prayers. We thoroughly enjoyed our time together with you at the beach. I especially remember all I learned from Roger in the governance world. One of the last times I saw Roger he came to my Senate hearing for support after much coaching. I'll never forget that. All our best. John and Chris Pearson
