Personal note from Roger's Family

Roger was a beloved husband of 39 years, father to three children, and grandfather to four grandchildren. He was also a visionary architect who sought to serve his community. While fighting Multiple Sclerosis for over 40 years, Roger strove to provide support to the disabled and elderly. In most recent years, as the MS progressed into its final stages, his projects came to a halt, and medical bills began to pile up as he required around-the-clock care.

With no life insurance policy, Roger's family is now responsible for his medical, assisted living, and funeral costs, and it would bring tremendous relief to eliminate these debts completely.

Roger has dedicated so much of his life helping others. Your donations during this time would provide us with a much needed blessing.

Thank you 💜
