Jeanne, what in the world can I say here that I haven't said to you? It is just beyond my comprehension that Roger is gone. Everybody loved him. What was not to love? He was sweet, funny, upbeat, encouraging, God-fearing/loving, etc. I could be talking about you! It was a joy to be around you and Roger. Your love and devotion to each other was such an inspiration. You knew what those marriage vows were all about. It's amazing that so much good can come out of such a heartbreaking loss, but it does. So many lives have been touched and hopefully, changed. I'm going to miss my "slow hugs", but I know he'll have one waiting when I see him again. I love you with all my heart. Kendra and Leah are precious daughters who knew what a wonderful father they had. I pray for peace and comfort for you and the girls. Kisses!

Roger was a special person and a very dear friend. He was loved by so many people and I feel very fortunate to have had him in my life. He knew how I felt and I knew how he felt. My last visit with him was so wonderful and I know he kept his "deal". You also know how I feel about you, Kendra and Leah and how special you are to me. The Lord is good and we are lucky to have known Roger and shared memories that will live forever. Take care Jeanne,and know you have a special angel watching over you. God bless you and the girls. You are loved, Jennifer
