I just saw this tonight. We lost touch a very long time ago, but I worked for Roger many years ago. I felt deep sadness when I ran across his obituary. I liked him very much and clearly he was taken far too young. He taught me about trial presentations early in my litigation technology career and was a really creative and intelligent person. My very belated condolences to his family. I had to at very least comment that I thought a lot of him and say thank you for an early start in a career I loved, and for just being one of the good guys.

I am so sorry to hear that Roger has passed. He was a great guy, and was someone I always enjoyed talking with and working with. I had not worked on any cases with him for a few years but knowing he is gone makes me very sad. Truly a good man. My deepest condolences to his family.

My sincere condolences to the Sinker family. I spent many holidays and birthdays and such with Roger and friends in the last several years and I can say he was always spreading good vibes. He loved to bbq and we talked about the pride and love he feels for his sons, the ups and downs on the poker felt, and the latest in technology. He will truly be missed. Rest In Peace Roger.

I was Roger's employee for 18 years. I will always remember Roger as a great boss, a gentle leader, and a wonderful human being. I haven't seen him in years, but knowing he's gone just empties my heart. I will remember him, always.
