Roger had a love of music that he enjoyed sharing with others especially going to concerts with people. He was very proud of his granddaughter playing the violin. Roger enjoyed playing the harmonica and gave all of Evan’s children harmonicas. Watching them play would bring tears to his eyes. Roger loved to make people laugh and tell jokes. He was always there to help people. He would give the shirt off his back if someone needed it. Roger was an animal lover and lifelong lover of horses and dogs. He loved his grandkids and spending time with them. Roger was very proud of his family.
