He built several remarkable friendships in every place he lived. Roger was a hardworking, caring and generous man who always had a story to share or a joke to tell. He was happy when he could make someone smile. Roger would always be the first person in line to help someone in need. Nothing pleased him more than watching his grandchildren participate in every activity they did. Roger was an amazing father, grandfather and friend who will be dearly missed.
