Tom Sr. callrd me and aprised me of Roger's passing. I played with Roger at the Davenport and Waterloo shows. I enjoyed working with him, and I have to agree with Tom Jr., he was a very fine musician, and a great guy. He will be sorely missed by me, and everyone knew him. R.I.P/ my friend.

Sorry to hear of Rogers passing.
Glad he got to see how well he
was loved thru the benefit show
that his Quad Cities Musical
Family provided for him last month.
God keep Roger and bless his family.
