I got to know Roger back in the 80's as I was a young IBM'er in OakBrook, Illinois. Despite him being an older, smarter veteran of the company, Roger always made time for the younger rookies. Roger always struck me as a quiet, yet brilliant guy..with a good heart and a wonderful, wry sense of humor. So long after that time, he is one colleague I'll always remember. My condolences to his family, for your loss. As I'm sure you all know, he was one of the good-guys.

I'm glad I got to know you, Grandpa. I'll always remember the Xmases we had at Irish Beach, and your "dad jokes"---or perhaps they were "granddad jokes". I'll miss you.

Grandpa - I am so thankful you got to meet your great-grandson Indy. While you weren't able to say any words, the smile on your face said it all. It was a perfect couple of hours and it makes saying "goodbye" easier. I am also thankful you got to meet Ian and pull out your atlas and ask him questions about where he comes from in Australia. I loved family Christmases and family reunions growing up and loved hearing stories about your childhood and speaking French. We love you!

I always enjoyed being around Roger & Diane! Some of my fondest memories are the Christmases in Irish Beach with the whole family around and Diane's wonderful cooking! Later on, I really appreciated Roger & Diane's support & friendship as I went through some fairly major changes in my life. They were always there for me, Brian & Megan. Later on they embraced Jackie, which meant a lot to me. Once I moved to Asia, it became more difficult to see them as often. Jackie & I did stay with them once while they lived in the mountains and I had dinners with Roger & Diane in Brussels & London over the years of their European traveling. He was a great guy, fun to hang around with and have interesting discussions with. I wish I could have seen more of Roger & Diane over the past few years. I know he will be missed, and thank you Diane for your loving support. All the best and enjoy the family gathering this weekend!

I will miss my Dad's whistling and am very glad that he got baptized at the end. We were very fortunate to have good relatives from my mother's family (Betty, died 1965) and my stepmother's (Jacqueline, died 1977). He went through a lot with the loss of those two but I am happy he finally found a wife who lasted (even if caring for my Dad at the end nearly did Diane in). Diane probably gave him three more decades of life. Blessings to his soul!
