Uncle Roger you will be missed. Thank you for always trying to keep the family together by hosting family reunions at your house. Thank you for always coming to the special events like gradation parties. Thank you for letting us stay at your house when we were young and Aunt Louise making us soda pop pancakes. I will never forget that. You were always a very strong and kind man. Thank you for taking such good care care if grandma Barth. Like I said you will be missed.

My deepest sympathy to the Barth family and friends.

Free like a Butterfly

Take a step outside your shell
To drink the secrets of the well
No longer will you fit inside
There's no more need to run and hide

It's easy now to be yourself
And set your fears upon a shelf
To close your eyes for just a thought
And reconsider all you're taught

Wishes made when you were young
Captured in the songs you sung
Freed your heart to laugh and play
Reminders of a former day

So now you look through open eyes
To ask the hows, the whens, the whys
To search the world to find your part
And free the dreams within your heart
