Daddy,
The past 11 months has been the hardest time in my life. I would like to be able to say that it has gotten easier as time has gone on, and in some ways it has, but honestly it's only gotten worse! The longer you are gone and the longer I go without hearing your voice or seeing your smile I just think more and more about how much I truely miss you! And Nathan is amazing Daddy! I wish he had more time with you! You would be so proud of your little "Spike". He asks about you and he knows you when he sees your picture. I like to think that you come to him, in his dreams or maybe when he's in his room watching a movie. But trust that he will always know who his Pepaw is and he will grow up knowing how wonderful you were and have a great respect and love for you as I do! I am so happy tho, that we will all be together in Hawaii on Feb 15th to celebrate your life! It's because of you that we have this oppertunity and we are all truely blessed to have had you in our life for as long as we did! I LOVE YOU DADDY AND WILL MISS U FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART FOREVER!!
You Baby Girl, Christy

Roger Is it almost a year already.It seems like it was just yesterday that I called at the very moment you passed and Karen asked me how I knew to call at the exact moment..I am judy's twin and do feel her pain at times. God told me you had gone and that Judy needed me and so did the girls. I love you Roger and miss you alot ..your legacy will live on in all of us and your friends. You touched a lot of people while on this earth and you still do from Heaven. Will miss you super bowl sunday although the skins didn't do so well this year it will not be the same with out ya there yelling at the game. Sure was fun every year. I know your in a much better place and not hurting anymore. Mellie is up there with you and I know that makes you happy. Take care of her.
Love you sweet brother in law.

Hi Honey,
It is coming upon a year that you went home. It is so hard to believe that you have been gone for almost a year. I still miss you so much. I am doing better. I want you to know that I will love you forever no matter what the future holds. You were my first love and will always be in my heart Sweetheart. I know you are with me always whenever I need you. I hear you talking to me when I need you and feel your presence with me. I know you have had your hand in the changes in my life. You and God! I love you baby forever! Judy

Judy, Jennifer, Kristie & Family,
It is so hard to believe Roger has been gone for almost a year. Over the years he made so many friends, and was regarded as such a wonderful person. Girls, remember all the wonderful times spent with your Dad, as those memories will stay with you forever. Even tho the grandbabies were so little (at his passing), help create a memory for them, that will last their lifetime.
Judy, you and Roger had a special love that so many are envious of; that type of relationship is to be cherished. You have so many wonderful memories.
I feel very special to have known Roger, and will always remember him as a wonderful friend, father, and loving husband (to you).
Before Roger passed away, your family was included in my prayers nightly; you continue to be in them.
Although I don't see you guys often, I think of you all the time.
God Bless you all, and that Angel Roger will forever be watching over you all. Heaven got one of the best!!
Love you all,
Judy

My Darling,
I am having a hard time without you. I can't believe that it's been almost 6 months since I lost you. I cry every day for you. I am at your grave every day. I look at that stone and ask why? I know God had his reasons to take you but I am selfish and wanted you with me. I miss your beautiful smile and gorgeous blue eyes. I miss your arms around me and hearing your voice. I miss our togetherness. I am so lonely without you. The nights are the worse. I sit in the house and look at your pictures and cry thinking about the things we talked about wanting to do in the future. I just want you back so bad. I can't bear not having you with me. The girls and boys have been wonderful and the grandbabies are a joy and are really trying but oh honey, I just miss you so much. I will love you forever. My one and only true love. My heart forever! I love you.

Daddy,
I've had a hard time thinking of something to write on here, partly b/c it still doesn't seem real, even at 5 weeks later. I miss you so much, words cannot discribe. I'm scared of the day when this all finally hits me and I realize I will never see your arms wrapped around Mama again, your smile as you watch your grandbaby's play, your laugh as you watch a funny movie, you yell as you watch a Redskins vs. Dallas game (or any Redskins game at that!), our first vacation without you... our first ANYTHING without you! It just doesn't seem fair- why does God have to take the good ones! We're trying to take care of Mama the best we can, I pray that you're watching over us and approve! I LOVE YOU DADDY! PLEASE TAKE CARE OF US ALL!
Love Always,

Its hard to believe a month has gone by. I miss you so much. I love you Roger. You were sooo good to my twin sister Judy and such a wonderful brother in law and friend as well. Your legacy lives on in your two beautiful daughters and your beautiful grandchildren. I know your looking down on us all. Heaven is brighter now with you there. I will always miss and love you.

You will be missed forever Daddy! You were such a wonderful husband, father, grandfather and friend. I still can't understand why God chose to take such a wonderful person from his family so soon but everyone keeps telling me there is a plan. I hope it was something wonderful for you. You will forever be our guardian angel now. Watch over us and keep us safe. We love you with all out hearts!!!

Judy, Jennifer, Christy and families please know you are in our prayers. What great memories we have of Roger with Jimmy and the gang at the "Rivah" and New Years celebrating with his girls! No words ever seem right at a time like this but I hope knowing others care brings you some comfort. He is in the arms of the angels now but he will always be in your heart in the memories you have made together. Find comfort in each other during this difficult time. Rest in Peace Roger. God Bless.
