Dear Jo and family,
I was so very sorry to hear of Roger's passing. I know he had been sick for a while.
I always think of Roger as being the "life of the party"
when we cousins would get together. His family in
Iowa got very excited when we knew he was coming to
visit. We have some great memories.
My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult
time.
Sincerely,
Nancy Squire
