I called Mike this morning when I read the newspaper. Mike is working in Fort Lauderdale, FA today. I have a huge meeting in the CBD that I cannot miss. We would both be at Mothe's if the "Celebration of Mr. Roth's Life" was not this morning. We have so many fond memories of growing up together at St. Rosalie School. Our parents would get us together for fun and games so many Friday nights. I'll never forget all the memories and love we all shared. Mike said he will call Stevie after the services. Guess I'll see you at West Jefferson General Hospital's same day surgery unit before much longer. Mrs. Rhea and the entire family, my prayers are all yours. He was such a wonderful person; he is in Heaven for sure.
