Thank you all for your kind words and sympathy. Roger was Heaven sent. As you all know he was very precious and very special. He had a heart full of love for our Heavenly Father and for people. His first priority was our Heavenly Father. He would begin and end each day in prayer and in the word. He never gave up on God's Promises. May God Bless You.

Jon, Missy, Mike, & family, I am so sorry for your loss. Roger was a good man. He loved his children & his family, he loved life, he loved the outdoors, but most of all he loved God. May you find comfort in knowing he is with the Lord. I will be eternally grateful to Roger for so many things. He was loved by many & will be sorely missed by all who knew him. Hugs to all. I love you.
