My condolences on the passing of your Father. I hope the memory of your treasured relationship with Roger, Dad and Grandpa helps sustain you in the sadness of grief.
I will always remember when Rog and I would talk and reminisce about when he would come home from work at the paper mill and I would check his pockets, looking for my treat, a piece of Dentyne gum. A regular routine for the two of us when I was about 4 years old !!
Goodbye Roger, I never get a chance to say goodbye to our good friend from college. You the most amazing man that I have learned a lot from you. It has been so nice working with you Roger, thank you.
Roger was a true friend! He will be missed. Nobody could deal with students and Vendors like Roger.
It was a pleasure getting to know Roger in such a short time at the lodge. His witty sense of humour is something I'll miss. My deepest condolences to all of the Winter family. Thoughts and prayers to all.
So sorry for your loss. Roger will never be forgotten
Deepest sympathy to all, thoughts & prayers are with you all.
