My deepest sympathy for the entire family. I worked with Roger at Lee and saw him often at school functions for our children. He was always kind and friendly to everyone. I always looked forward to talking to him. He will be missed.

So sorry to learn of Roger's passing. I know he will be missed by his close family and friends. I remember when, as a young boy, our families would get together at Grandma Gaston's house for Sunday dinner and when it was Roger's birthday, we would sing happy birthday to him and he would get embarrassed and crawl under the dinner table. I reminded Roger of this when I last saw him, two years ago at the Gaston reunion, and we had a good laugh about that and shared many other memories of our family get togethers. My thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends during this time of sorrow.

Korn is a friend of mine. I am sure there are very many people who can say this. Some people have the opportunity to touch a few people in their lives...Korn touched everyone he met. Looking back to when I first met him at Valley Dairy he had that ability. This man had a smile on his soul; he just made you feel good that you were here, now, with him. I am sure we will all share that same peace when we meet him again some day. For now my condolences to his family. I am truly sorry that I cannot attend the viewing to express my sentiments and remember Roger with you.

WE went to school with Roger (Corn). When he worked at UPMC, we always knew we would receive quality care. We knew when he would be near the room we occupied because we could hear him whistling a tune. We will miss not only Roger, but that special whistle that seemed to just cheer people up. Sorry for your loss.
