We just met Uncle Roger upon the 1987 death of his brother, Bill, who was Bob's father. We enjoyed getting to know Roger & Fran a few times over the years. We were able to visit him in the rehab area 6 days before he passed. He enjoyed his family and life well. We will really miss him. Prayers for Elyse, Jennifer and Joumana.
