I only found out today that you have gone on. I miss those days when you, me, and Jim used to go shooting. So sorry that we lost contact. I was trying to find you and this is where the trail ended. Goodbye my friend. Hopefully there's a shooting range where you are. Aim small, miss small.

Peace be with you.... family of a very respected man in my eyes. I met Mad Dawg on the MSN boards as well. He helped me with having my back against a bully. I will never forget his act of kindness towards me. I pray you continue to be comforted just being able to have had him in your lives and that someday you will hold each other again. That your pain will be eased with happy memories of his life with you. Peace~Guppy

I also knew Roger from ProBoards, and although I did not know him in person, it is difficult to express how much he is missed. How can I possibly add to the wonderful tributes already stated? He was a warm, wonderful, understanding friend who touched so many lives in so many ways. <3

Roger/Dawg: You were a beautiful, smart, funny, sensitive, lovely man who will be greatly missed. Condolences to all of your family, friends, and pets. I will never forget you.
You are the sun that shines so bright,
You are the twinkle of a star in the sky,
You are the flowers that grow wild and free,
You are an angel who glides on the breeze.

Online acquaintance (PalmBeachPaul aka "WindyCityPaul" from before) over at NOTmsnmoney on ProBoards. Didn't know Bruce other than his online profile name, didn't always agree- but had some great discussions. He will be missed. His loved ones and "real" friends are in my thoughts and prayers.

Roger was a gentle soul whom I was fortunate enough to come to know online. His love of animals and empathy with others made him special. A gentleman in all connotations of the word. My sincerest condolences to his family. He's left footprints on your hearts, as he left footprints on mine and many others. Follow those footprints. You'll always find him waiting there. Sleep softly, old friend.

I'm yet another who never knew Roger personally. I also never got the chance to know him well, despite his capacity as a moderator on my message board. Even so, I feel his loss daily and will always remember him as a kind soul. Go in peace, friend. My thoughts, too, are with his family and friends at this time.

Roger and I went back to the 7th grade at Will Rogers Intermediate School. We shared a common interest in military history and vintage aviation. Like many life-long associations sometimes we would stay in very close touch, and sometimes a year or so would go by between visits. Roger was one of those folks from whom a good laugh was always guaranteed; but then, we had been mischief makers from the get-go.
I would like to express my sincere sympathies to Tom & Inga Wright, Steve and Mary Wright and family, and to the brother and sister-in-law in Germany whom I have not yet had the opportunity to meet.
Having known the family as close as I have for the past thirty years, I know that this is an incredibly difficult time.
You're in My Heart and in My Prayers.
