Hi everyone,
We got this message from Kathy Heddon today. It is a sad day. Roger was a great friend and a strong supporter of this group.

With great sadness, I write to announce that Roger passed away on Friday, September 4th, at home. His struggle was great, and I am thankful that he is finally at peace. I have appreciated all the prayers and support of so many friends and family these past many months.

Got the same email you did early this afternoon, went out on a mind clearing 100 mile ride (using all back roads and never going over 45mph) with kind/funny/memorable thoughts of Roger going through my head the whole time. I cried along the way at times, chuckled a few times, and at the very end of the ride felt better than I had after reading Kathy's email. Deb and I will be doing everything we can to be at both the service next Saturday, then the breakfast on Sunday.

Our prayers go out to Kathy, and our thoughts of Roger in better times is in our heart. Let's all celebrate him for who he was and what he brought to each of our lives.

Sincerely,

Bill & Debbie S.

Very sad news. My condolences to Roger's family and all his cobra family.
