God Saw You
God saw you getting tired
When a cure was not to be
He closed His arms around you
And wispered " come to Me"
With tearful eyes we watched you,
and saw you pass away,
and though we loved you dearly,
we could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
hard working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He takes the very best.##imported-begin##Joe & Rosanne##imported-end##
We knew Roger from PWP. He was always the guy who came up to new members and made them feel welcome. Roger always had a hug and a good word for everybody. He will be missed.##imported-begin##Michele and Victor Robarge##imported-end##

Sharon: I "signed" before, but I don't see that it was properly saved. I'll miss the little things that Roger did - like sanding behind me while I was bowling and making fun of me. He was a great guy. Seemed like he was always laughing.##imported-begin##Fred & Linda Clark##imported-end##
Sharon seems I have known you forever, and in that association have been greatly enriched with your friendship. I remember the joy and happiness you radiated when you and Roger were married, now I share with you the sorrow and sadness at his passing. You are an inspiration. As we travel through our lives, almost on parallel paths, it is always comforting to look across and see your kindred spirit still there ever moving onward. If there is anything I could do to ease your sorrow, you know I would.##imported-begin##Terry Black##imported-end##
Roger was truly a blessing from God because he brought God's characteristic comfort and joy to everyone he met. Roger is with God forever because I know he chose to believe in God's words of promise and salvation. To his wife Sharon I would say Roger left you in the safe state of God's Ever Blessing Shield of care.

Sharon - Please know my thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Roger put up a valient fight against cancer. I'm glad you were able to share as many things as you could over the last two years, especially. Fond memories help heal the sorrow.

Dear Sweet Sharon:
Here's to Roger: A wonderful husband; a supportive, loving father; a treasured grandfather and a loyal and generous friend. I remember a great big man who took time to have a tea party with two very little girls...and drank all of his tea. He was the very best Friday night casino date anyone could have, win or lose. How we loved sharing adventures with you two in the blazing streets of Cabo. We love you Royer; it's time for you to rest. Claire and Willums##imported-begin##Bill and Claire Hansen##imported-end##
Roger was such an important part of our lives. He was a wonderful step-father and grandpa. We will sorely miss his hugs and smiles.##imported-begin##Ed, Sonda, & kids##imported-end##
