I remember Roger's yummy cheese grit casserole and every time I make it, memories of Roger and his bubbly personality bring a smile to my face. I hope that warm memories will give you comfort as you go through this difficult time. Roger will be remembered fondly.

Dear Mrs Herman and family,
I want to express my condolences to you. I met Mr Herman a few years ago when he first came to Trail Lake. I meet many people in my life because of what I do, few capture my heart like Mr. and Mrs. Herman. It was an honor and privilege to have had the opportunity to meet. God bless you and your family.

Dear family members,
Robert was a classmate of mine in junior high, and I recall him talking fondly of his Dad "the U-2 pilot." Roger's life story seemed remarkably similar to that chronicled in the TV series "Call to Glory." He truly had an amazing career doing what he liked. My deepest sympathies to all of you.

Dear Monica and family:
Roger was a fellow Air Force veteran, and with me, an instructor at Southwest Airlines. I knew him as a dedicated professional who was greatly respected by the Pilots he trained. He never made it known, to me at least, the scope and breadth of his life as an aviator. It wasn't until after his passing did I find out the story he wrote. There are few who have blazed the heights in aviation that can match Roger. In memory, I salute him for those accomplishments.
So Monica, not has Roger merely slipped the surly bonds of this physical life, he left a legacy in the memory of those who knew and loved him. I am thankful to have been his friend.
May God bless and care for you and your family,
Ray

My deepest symphonies for your loss.
Roger and I were on many trips together including the first one to Viet Nam. I came into the wing as Roger did in 1956 and retired from the Wing in 1976. I was a U-2 Mechanic.
I have many wonderful memories of those years as I am sure you do. Cherish those Memories.
Joe
