I grew up with Becky and went to school with Roger. We've been in Florida for many years now, but I did have a nice conversation with becky several years ago when I was trying to get a hold of Roger. On the phone that day Becky and I talked about old memories and things that happened almost 50 years ago... I am truly sorry for your loss.
Warmest Regards,
