Anna
I was shocked to come home and read of Roger’s passing. As you know I had him on 24 prayer lists and everyone will be so sorry to hear of his passing. Always know that he is at peace and free from pain. He had a wonderful life and will be sorely missed. His classmates have been notfied by email this morning. You and your family will be in all of our prayers.
