Sandy and family- you have my deepest sympathy. Thank you for sharing Roger during the Christmas holiday. Roger was the best Santa. It was nice over the years that Roger knew who the kids were when he came to the house. I miss having him come due to my kids have gotten older. Thank you again and know you are in our thoughts and prayers.
Sandy, my heart is wrapped tight around you my dear sweet sis. Roger will forever hold a place in your heart as well as my ear as I was the lucky one that got to talk to him as he was shopping or waiting for the kids as they shopped. He was always cracking jokes so I know that he is now entertaining the loney in Heaven. you are never out of my thought & never will be. All my love to you all at this time & in the future.
Love you Sis
Roger was a wonderful guy that made our girls believe in the magic of Christmas for just a while longer – he was the BEST Santa, always enjoying every minute in the red costume and going out of his way to see a child smile – thank you for sharing him with the rest of us suring the holiday season… he will surely be missed! Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during such a difficult time.
to the family, we are so sorry to hear about Roger, you will all be in our prayers, Lori we spent quite a few ball games together with your brother what a great guy.
