I feel blessed to have worked with Bob at Milwaukee Insurance. Through my tears, I find myself thinking of the punch lines to some of his jokes. He could barely finish telling a good one because he would be laughing so hard by the end of it. “65 centsa short,” “I’ll fix your nose,” “Soma day,” and on and on ... What a special man he is and always will be. My heart goes out to the Rogos – may grand memories ease your pain.

I am so sorry to hear for your loss. There are no words here that I know that can take your pain away. I do know that God does give you strength to help you bear at this time of need. I pray that God hold you all in his loving embrace so you can feel his peace and love at this time.
Love,
Poonam

Dear Rogo Family,
Please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of Bob. I remember Bob while at Milwaukee Insurance in the 1980's as a wonderful, outgoing, and kind spirited person.

To my mom, the children, grandchildren and great grandchildren of Robert "Bob" Rogo. I will miss Bob's wonderful sense of humor, his incredible attention to detail , his faith and sitting outside chattting over a cigar. I am so happy Bob was so good to my mother. He added color and depth to our lives and one of his paintings will always rest joyfully in our home to remind us of him daily.

I had the pleasure of seeing Bob not that long ago at an MGC church event. He looked the same as he did when we both worked at Milwaukee Insurance. I enjoyed his genuine joy for life and his humor. I'm sure he will be very missed by everyone who knew him.

I also extend my deep sympathy to Betsy/Liz, his daughter who I worked with at MGC.

To all my Rogo friends,
We are so heartfully sorry for your loss. You've lived through the death of your beloved mother with the help of each other, even though this will be as hard, I know you will be strong for each other and help each other through. If you ever need just one more person to help get you through, please know I and my family are here for you. What ever we can do at this sad time. May God's beautiful love get you through the next few days and may happy memories bring you peace in your hearts. Special XOXO to you James Robert.
With our love and sympathy,
