Nissy, Dan, David & Family - I learned of Roger's death this morning from my Mom. I have fond memories of visiting Cooperstown, the Coast to Coast store, and to their home on the hill. Friendships that last a life time were role modeled through the Bakken's and so many of their mutual friends over the years. Rita, Ella Ray, and I send our prayers to you. My Mom is headed to Iowa on Monday and will not be able to attend the funeral but we will be there in spirit to support all of you. Draw strength in your faith, family, and friends.
