    I enjoyed many conversation with Roger when he attended Stone House Presbyterian Church. We did enjoy a breakfast together at Honey Butters. We talked a couple of times on the phone after the virus changed our congregation visits. I wii miss him.

    I worked with Roger at Virginia Tech in the 1970s. He was a true Southern Gentleman and a wonderful colleague. Rest In Peace my friend
