I met Rodger when he hired on as my coworker. We became fast friends. His love of life and family was absolutely fantastic. He was the one person who would give you advice, maybe not what you wanted to hear, but what you needed to hear. I remember when I needed an electrical outlet replaced. Rodger offered his help, he didn't just repair it, he had me do it and talked me through the process. He was always there to hear my crazy ideas and laugh, but then quietly as a father would lead me to more realistic ones. He was a big man, with a big heart, big love, big passions and a big zeal for life. He truly treasured the love of his life, Judy...and seeing that taught me what true love really is. I looked to Rodger as a father, and a friend. Not many people can leave as great of an impact as Rodger did....you will be missed my friend!
