Roland was a true gentleman: thoughtful, courteous, and kind. Roland, along with Shirley, was a warm and gracious host.
Together, they welcomed First Methodist Church Choir to their home for wonderful picnics ~ food, fun, and fellowship.
Remember when Roland and his band appeared on the Jerry Lewis Muscular Dystrophy telethon?
Happy memories of Roland ~ shared with the choir.

Dear Family...
I was saddened to learn of Roland's passing. A great portion of my life was associated with the friendship of all of you and the many years of performing with the Singing Cedars.
My deepest sympathy to all and may Roland Rest in Peace.
Love.......
