  1. Jean, Donna and Family, Greg and Family – I am very sorry to hear of Roger’s passing. So many memories of him and my dad over the years during hunting season heydays and all the good times our two families have shared back in the day. A good man who will always be remembered.
    My condolences to all – Wanda London Pangrazio
