I was surprized and disapointed to hear of Rogers pasimg.I had just talked to him a few weeks ago and he sounded fine.He is the reason that I started flying and spent a lot of time with me to make me safe.I owe him everything.We had a lot of good times flying together all over the country and all of these things I will miss.If there is anything that I can do ,just let me know.He will always be in my mind keeping me safe.

I'm so sorry. I would never be in aviation without him. He was my first flight instructor and was the best. I looked up to him as a father in flying.

All my best
