So sorry to miss his service. I didn't see this until today. I have many fond memories through all our sports together. I will always remember playing soccer in second grade at memorial field and Mr. Roulier using his auctioneer skills to cheer us on....and he and Mrs. Roulier being at every game/event Neil was in. Great people. I'm sorry for all of your families loss. Our prayers are will you all.

Marcia, we will also all miss Bob at the Antlers health club; we were there so many times together over the years that it's difficult to believe we won't be engaged in good-natured ribbing in the future. The service was a great tribute yesterday and I was thankful I was able to attend. God bless your family.

Going to miss my workout partner at the Antlers. Haven't worked out since early January, was shocked when I heard he had passed away. Great Republican buddy, we used to watch FOX news while on the treadmill. Our prayers are with the family.
