My sincere condolences to you and your family, losing a child then her father, my heart goes out to the family. I saw what a dedicated father he was, and such a gentleman. He can now be an Angel in heaven with his beloved daughter. Such a great man to start the Foundation he did for all women. Bless his soul, RIP Sir

Roger and I had many good times as the Ali Kemp presentation happened at Central Missouri. We also shared good times at the 50th Reunion of the fraternity. Roger and I were some of the first alumni from MO Theta. I will miss him too.

Dear Kathy and Family,
Roger was an active member of Sigma Epsilon Colony when I pledged in 1967 and I remember him fondly. I video-taped him speaking at our Sigma Phi Epsilon 40th anniversary in 2008 about his new and growing "Take Defense" foundation. I sent him a copy, but if it has been lost and would be meaningful to your family, I would be honored to send you another. My heart goes out to you all. It is an honor to have known him and called him brother.
Love,
Max D. Harper
