I am so sad to hear of Roger's passing. I worked with him at UJB many years ago and never forgot his fabulous sense of humor and wit. He lit up many a dull day with a smile and a joke. Please accept my sincerest sympathy.

I have always said that Roger was THE funniest person I ever met in my life. We worked together at United Jersey Bank in the 80's and really had some great times. He was very generous (I still have a miniature Christmas Tree he made for me with little ornaments and lights. I always treasured that tree). He will keep Heaven rockin' for sure!!!

I am so sorry fror your loss. Roger was a wonderful person. He was the first person to befriend me when I started at La Salle and it was at one of his parties that I met my husband. He will be missed.
