Rodger and Virginia were the sweetest people I knew! They were friends from the Splash-master’s Art Club through the years. I enjoyed both of their artistic talents, as they were equally blessed with tremendous talent for Art. I also enjoyed many occasions of dancing with them, as we followed the Southern Tier All Star Jazz Band. Rodger showed me how to dance to the music that he and Ginny loved. It was such a special time, and such special people. I feel so Blessed to have known both of them. So sad that they are gone and I didn’t even know! Life goes so fast,but I will treasure all the memories that were made with them- at Art Club Shows, and dancing to the Big Band music! Love you guys and hope you are dancing to the wonderful music in Heaven!
Roger will be missed for his love of music and Ginny for being a fine artist.
Their love for each other should be a lesson for every married couple. They’ve gone to the dancing hall in heaven.
Great folks that many should have known.
We have so many treasured memories of good times spent with the Millers……We feel honored that they accepted us as part of their extended family…..We will miss their presence in our lives…..Rest in peace good friends…..”til we meet again”…..Tom and Frank
So appreciate seeing of Roger’s death in the Genesee Penny saver.Had lost contact with them and without the Pennysaver would never have learned of our loss…..My late husband and I so enjoyed their company dancing at the Lakeshore House in Canandaigua…They won many prizes for their dancing……..Was wonderful to have known them…They were both so enjoyable……Ginny Miser
A good neighbor, artist, poet!
He is now at rest with his lovely wife Virginia
