May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

When we received Zoe's e-mail telling of your passing we were both shocked and saddened. Though we've known you only a handful of years, we will sorely miss you as our Chairman of the 7:00 am coffee group, beach ambassador, and good friend.

Through you we met and were befriended by your friends and family. Many wonderful times followed. Vallarta will be less beautiful and a lot less fun in your absence. There can be only one Mr. CNN.
Rest in peace friend, our memories of you will be with us always.

Michael and Gloria

My heartfelt sympathy goes out to the family.Rog was a great guy! I lived in his neighborhood when I was a kid. I still use Adarini's'Raviola recipe, remember Barney sitting on the porch of the house that was moved to make room for the expressway.

R.I.P God be with you!

Toni & Family, Lawrence and I and the kids were so sorry to hear of your loss. We loved the times we spent in Mexico on the beach listening to Rogers great stories. It has been a few years since T.J. & Garrett have seen Roger but they remember him fondly as he called T.J. Heff on the beach. We hope to see you soon Toni and apologize we can not make it, we could not get an early enough flight out on Monday to arrive in time. Dad and Suk will bring our love with them. Our prayers and thoughts are with you now and always. Love Kari, Lawrence, and the kids.
