Remembering and missing Roger.

We miss Roger and send our ongoing love and support to Marge and his family.

Marge I have good memories about Your dear Roger, wonderful Human Being as you are

Roger was a man of many talents. He touched our lives on a personal level. He had an engaging mind and a generous spirit. We will miss his stories, his wisdom, and his loving presence in our lives.

Truly a great friend. We will miss you. Donna and Bob Stoneroad

There are no words to express how much Roger Yost meant to me and my family. He was the best teacher of all only over shadowed by his remarkable roll as a FATHER, which is something I have wished for my whole life. This is an unforgettable man.

Marge, Zilpha, Emma, and Family
Eric and I are saddened to hear that Roger has passed, and wanted to convey to you our deep condolences. I have the most wonderful vivid memories of working with Roger; his gestures, his voice, his humor. He was an extraordinary person and I learned much from him. He had the ability to deliver a message with laserlike candor and package it in a way that shifted your viewpoint. It was a skill I very much admired.

What a incredible and interesting life Rodger had. I am so sorry that I never had the pleasure to spend time with him.

I had the opportunity to meet Roger through Walter Hartman few years ago. He was a brilliant man and enjoyed his conversation a lot.
Marge I send you a big hug, he will be terribly missed
