Pop's we will miss having those times @ Red Cedar Lake listening to the old country tunes. The times you use to play the guitar at Larder Lake. The memories in the "Bunkie" singing some of the oldies from "Willies Roadhouse" on the siruis radio watching the fire getting the temp to 90 degrees. The stories you would tell, your woodworking projects are one of kind. We will miss you and love you always.

Our deepest condolences to the entire Roffey family at this difficult time. I have many fond memories of the Hicks , especially how welcoming him and
Loretta were to the many friends who used to invade their home at all hours. I am sure that never changed.
