Rose, Sharon, Wayne and Mark,
I am so sorry for your loss. Roger was a wonderful guy and you all were such great neighbors. I hope all of your happy memories will get you through these hard times.
I am adding a photo of Roger and Rose that was taken at our house on Christmas morning around 1978.
Love, Betty
