I worked with Roger for many years at the Times News. It was a pleasant time working with Roger, we had many great conversations, a lot of laughs working together every night. Memory's of Roger will always be good Memory's . My prayers will be with you Beverly and all the family . Jr. Blackwell
I worked with Roger at the newspaper years ago. He was a very pleasant person to be around. So saddened to hear of his passing. God bless the family. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Roger was my composing room supervisor back in the 80's at The Ledger in Lakeland.
He had to deal with working nights with a bunch of (mostly younger) women, who liked to play tricks on him and give him heck, at times.
I was a newly divorced single mom with an infant son working nights and Sat. without any family support. Roger was so kind and understanding with my situation. There was even a couple of times he helped me move.
About 7 years ago he came into The Ledger lobby and someone called me down to see him. Before he walked away, I took the opportunity to tell him that I appreciated what he did for me but never showed it at the time. Tears welled up in his eyes.
Roger is now an official angel!
Roger was my boss at The Ledger I can honestly say he was the BEST boss I have ever had. He was always kind, funny, thoughtful and helpful to everyone he met. Even though it's been years since I've seen him, he made a positive impact on my life and I thought of him often. My prayers go out to his family.

Camping, fishing and the game "Fast Track" were highlights of our times together with Roger. Friendly, generous and compassionate are some of the words I think of to describe him. I will miss him and the friendship we had.
