Roger cherished spending time with his daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren. He took pleasure in getting to know each of his grandchildren well and he was proud of his family. He was a beloved father and grandfather who will be remembered for his easy going nature and the care that he demonstrated in every aspect of life. Roger truly knew the importance of family and made certain that his daughter and grandchildren felt his love and care. To his daughter, he was a best friend and irreplaceable mentor.
