So sorry for you loss. Unfortunately we don't see each other as often as in the "old" day. In the picture on the O/B page he bears a resemblance to his uncle Albert. REP

So many years have passed since I have seen Roger. Sad the old neighborhoods no longer exist. RIP Roger, you looked so much like you uncle Albert, wonder if we had recognized each if we passed on the street.
