Not sure what to say?

My condolences.Can someone please contact me I live in Little italy and wanted to speak with a family member regarding a book that may have belonged to him.

Dr. Welchans is largely responsible for setting me on a lifetime career in the arts which continues to this day. He was a good, kind, and wise man-funny too.

My first acquaintance was at John Carroll when he, as head of the Music Dept. , helped organize a 1976 piano recital there, of a pianist I knew. I've kept his name in mind all these years. Thx for his support of the arts. Linda Kearney, classical musician/ flutist [email protected]

Uncle Roger. You didn´t want me to call you Uncle Roger but that is how I always knew you. I still have the engraved silver cup you gave me when I was born. It has become a tradition in our family. Thank you for your artistic talent. It has been inherited by my grandchildren. Although I didn´t spend enough time with you I will cherish the memories of a very talented, amazing Uncle Roger.

Thank you for your very brave service to our country ! God bless you
