Roger was my son-in-law. Roger was always very generous to my husband and myself. Shared his love, gifts of money and a beautiful fur coat. I always felt secure while he was in the world because of his concern for our welfare. My daughter gave him a wonderful send-off. We'll never forget you Roger.

Some things are too deeply felt to be fully expressed - I will always remember Roger and our days at Blue Island High School and then later my son having the opportunity to work for him.
Know that we care about your sorrow and share in your loss.

I remember Roger as a great person. He rented our garage before he left for service in Korea. Was very intgerested in cars as a young man - always a gentleman. I also remember his wife Marion. If my memory serves me correctly she was a cheerleader at BICHS. My condolences to his family.

Our condolences to your family, but I know he will be spending his afternoons with Buck at that Farmstand in the sky. What a Great Guy! My grandfather will surely enjoy his company once again.

My condolences to the family. I am sorry to hear of your loss. I remember him kindly. He used to take the time to snow plow by our house after he was done with his own house.
He was a good pal to my Dad. I remember our family finishing up with our supper and I'd hear a loud whistle outside. It would be Roger on his golf cart in our alley whistling for my Dad. Then off they would go!
He will be missed.

What a wonderful man. Roger always had a smile on his face and never drove by without saying hello. I always was made to feel like part of the family everytime I was at their home on Fish Lake.
What a wonderful man to remember and will truly be missed.
You are in our thoughts,
Mandy Bergan

I'm very sorry to hear of Roger's passing. My deepest sympathies go out to the family. We called him "Uncle Roger" when he would play the accordian for us over in John Careys back yard. I will never forget all the block parties, and all the wild and crazy times we all had together. May he rest in peace and hopefully be united with my dad and John Carey again.... in a better place.
