Roger ...............
Your dad left here a while ago
and I know, that it was hard.....
for you not to show
the way you felt..deep down inside.........
but you knew........ you had me by your side
I loved you ........just short of 9 years ........you'd think I could
control........... by now, some of these tears.........
when I think about all the times we had ......ya know, Roger.........
we were no different.......from what others had.. ...
but you know ..........that the bottom line is ..
...I will always love you.....and I miss you ......something awful
so now I sleep on your side of the bed......and sometimes it seems like
your touching my head....... its too much to fathom.....
to much to comprehend......
you being gone.......Ill always love you,
Roger, until my days end.
We all love and miss you
your fiance and best friend

As each day goes by, it is hard to believe that Roger is gone, I dont think it will ever make much sense because so many cared for him. My prayers go out Ernie, Joann, and Morgan, and to my best friend Carla, and her boys Justin, and Curtis. Roger will be missed very much.

Roger/Dawgit was a great friend to all of us, and he will be sorely missed. I still have trouble believing he's moved on. Some of his closest companions suggested I post one of the stories I used to tell him; they used to make him laugh, and I'm told he enjoyed them quite a bit. I made an attempt to post a similar short tale here, but evidently it was a bit too graphic to be permitted. So, here is my next attempt to write something in his honor, I dedicate this to you, Roger. I hope it would have made you smile to read it.
The night air blew fiercely around the small band of heroes, and as the final dying embers of their fire began to wane, the mage Quillito cast a small bolt of fire to re-kindle the flame. His three travelling companions, a shaman named Anorah, a warrior named Dawgit, and a priest named Phx, huddled together to try and generate a bit more heat. The mage, seeing his cold, hungry, and thirsty compatriots, conjured some food and water and handed it out amongst the small band. It was, to say the least, a pitiful meal, and looking at the food with distaste, Anorah pushed her helping to Dawgit. He smirked, and while the mage's back was turned, cast both his plate and hers nto the fire. In a puff of smoke, the rotten meal vanished. Phx, trying his best not to laugh, followed suit; the mage meanwhile, was looking through his backpack for an interesting tome to read. After finding the book he wanted, he glanced about and saw that his friends had eaten his meal. they must need more, he thought, and he conjured another three servings of his dreadful food and muddy drink. Phx, his face coloring with disgust, tried to steel himself for his portion. He took a single bite of the bread and was forced to leave the camp to take care of some less-than-pleasant business. Anorah watched in horror as Quillito rounded on her, handing her first a glass of the dark liquid he had created. She grimaced and took a swig. It tasted, she thought, like dirt. Suppressing her reflex to cough, she attempted to smile at her well-meaning friend. The effort under duress was too great, however, and all she could muster was a slightly warped frown. Now, it was Dawgit's turn. He gazed at his destruction, a terrible feast fit for no man or beast, and took a bite of the bread. The horror! He fell to his knees, trying to right himself, and spluttered the words "tastes alright" befire he fell to the feet of his oblivious friend. Quillito looked quizzically at Phx, who had returned from what he assumed had been a little walk, seeing that his firend suddenly looked extremely sick. No matter, he thought, and turned to Dawgit to deal him the final blow, a glass of his concocted water. With a single sip, the warrior was overcome, and without another word, he plunged into unconsciousness. Anorah, who had managed to regain her composure, suddenly felt ill once more, and she too was knocked out by the force of the terrible water's flavor. Only Phx remained, and he was badly wounded. His opponent, the bread plate Quillito handed to him, looked impossible to conquer. He hesitated, looking for another way out of the showdown. Quillito, who was still wondering why his firneds had been able to go to sleep so suddenly, watched with an absent smile. His friends adored his meals. Phx took a bite of the moldy pastry in front of him and keeled over, lettig himself be overcome by darkness. His final thought before losing consciousness was of breakfast; he would prepare that meal with their remaining rations. Quillito was stunned. His friends must all have been exhausted! Never makng the connection, he absently took a bite of his own bread. Yuck, he thought. He would never understand why his comrades loved his horrific banquets.
We'll all miss you, Roger. I hope you've gone to a better place, preferably without any of my conjured meals.
-Quillito

Dear Carla, Justin and Curtis, my thoughts and prayers go out to you at this time.
"Death is just the gateway
our loved ones pass through
on their way to the land
where we're all born anew
and while we can't see
what's on deaths other side,
We know that our Father
will richly provide
all that he has promised
to those who believe
and his kingdom is waiting
for us to receive.

Roger, Marty, Kristle,and I, and a few others were practically inseperable in school. This is with great sadness that we all have to say goodbye to him. As Marty said, the reunion we would've all loved is a loss for now. I love you Roger we all do!!! You are already missed and I do send my prayers and condolences to his family.
Love forever your friend Melody

Things haven't been the same
Since you've been gone.
For a while I wondered
How I'd carry on.
The emptiness inside,
It aches all the time.
That is the reason why
I am writing this rhyme.
When I heard the news,
I didn't know what to do.
It happened so suddenly,
It just couldn't be true.
They said you'd passed on,
And you weren't coming home.
You'd gone on to Heaven,
Where your soul could roam.
I cried all day
And I cried all night.
I say I'm okay,
But I'm not quite alright.
How can I pretend
That I'm not still in pain,
And wipe away the tears
That fall like rain?
I'll remember that day,
The day that we met,
And your smiling face
I will never forget.
This is my promise,
A vow I'll keep evermore:
You'll be in my heart
Until I reach Heaven's shores.
I will miss you my dear friend you are an ireplacable friend and team memmeber. forever and for always you will be in my heart. Damaris/Anorah

I was so shocked to find that we had lost such a wonderful, caring, kind, generous, fun-loving person from our Collateral Damage guild. Lukas/Dawgit will be solely missed. He was always a bright spot in my day. My prayers are with his family and close friends. I'll miss you sweetie!

It is very sad that "Dawgit" had to leave us so soon. You were a great guildmate, and an even better friend to everyone whoever knew you. Everyone in the guild Collateral Damage has felt your absence, and we will mourn your loss for a long time to come. Goodbye Friend.

Our group has been broken; our tank is gone. No more Scholo or Strat and I can't bear the thought of logging and not seeing your name in my friends list. It is strange how close you can become to someone via pst. /whisper dawgit /invite lukas no more. I only wish I knew so I could help. I am a better person for knowing you. The world has lost a great man. I hope you have found peace - Lindonia/Phx.

Roger and I were great friends throughout high school and after until I left for the service. He was always the one that had everything together and the ability to make things happen. Its a shock that he had to leave us so soon and that the reunion with my old friend I had hoped for will have to wait a while longer. My deepest condolences go out to Joann, Ernie and Morgan.

My Wish 4 YOU!
"I wish for you".....
Comfort on difficult days,
Smiles, when sadness intrudes,
Rainbows to follow the clouds,
Sunsets to warm your heart,
Gentle hugs when spirits sag,
Friendships to brighten your being,
Beauty for your eyes to see,
Confidence for when you doubt,
Faith, so that you can believe,
Courage to know yourself,
Patience to accept the truth,
And love to complete your life.
"God Bless You!!"
I asked the Lord to bless you,
As I prayed for you today,
To guide you and protect you,
As you go along your way...
His love is always with you,
You know He'll see us through;
So when the road you're traveling on,
Seems difficult at best..
" Know that God will do the rest!!"
I will miss you so much my friend and never froget you. You will always be in my prayers, my heart and ,my thoughts......
XOXO Maria (Blaze)
