When I heard that poppy passed I cried so hard that night my eyes dried out. Whenever I went to his house for the last time I knew he was weak, and his body was tried. I knew he needed a good place to go.

To Rita, Clint, and April. Milt and I had not seen each other often in many years as we both had different lives. Patty and I both were glad that we were able to attend the service today, and witnessed a service devoted to a man who loved God and also loved his family. It was clear that this service was delivered by 2 gentlemen who knew and loved Milton. They talked about the Milt Rogers who I have known and respected for around 40 years now. I will describe Milton as " a good man". You were lucky to have this man in your lives.
