Dear June,
I am so very sorry to hear of Roger's passing.
My prayer for you and your family is that in the very most unlikely places, in the hard and the hurt and the dark, you would know the unexpected hope that can only come from our Savior. Impossible grace abounds, even where we least expect it.
Sending loving thoughts,
Joy Lindell

Our love, thoughts, and prayers to all of your family.
Roger was my 2nd cousin, His father and my Mother
were first cousins. We also went to six years of high
school together and always had a lot of fun.
We were also confirmed together at Lebanon Lutheran
church so had lots of ties growing up.
He was such a special guy. Bless his memory!
Maxine
