Trudy and family, I'm so sorry for your loss. Roger was a great guy and I always enjoyed seeing him at family events. He had a bright spark of personality and will be missed.

To the Hollfelder family and friends, Grace and I send or condolences. He has always been a very sincere and genuine man. I have many memories of talking with Roger while I waited to be picked up from school. When we talked I felt he truely cared and that he took the time to really listen. He was friendly and not just engaging in small talk. A few times I remember being at your home for different events (i.e. Kevin's graduation party, garage sales, the "Rogers' Birthdays"). He had his camera and a big smile. These are the memories that I will carry with me about Roger. God bless.
