I so enjoyed joining Roland on medical missions to Guatemala, his support for the underserved is the gold standard for humanitarian work.

I´m heartbroken to hear of Doctors passing. I had the pleasure of being he patient at Family Health Care. He also counseled on some on my medical issues. He was so kind, always happy to see me, as if we were close friends not just doctor and patient. If I saw him at the hospital he would always look me in the eyes and say hello.

Roland, we skied many, many verticals together and enjoyed the great outdoors. You have been a pillar of the medical community and a wonderful friend. I am sure wherever you ski this season it will be absolutely "Heavenly" Sincerest condolences to Kate and Family Dan & Barbara Trozak
