Roger was my supervising teacher, for my teaching practicum, at Monroe Jr High, in the early 70's. I ended up being hired and spent 2 years on staff. Teaching together, staff parties and competing in the RiverEast Teachers curling league were memorable times. He was a dedicated, fun loving, social and generous person. Our condolences to his family. - Posted by: Warren and Dorothy Earl (Teacher colleague's) on: Feb 01, 2025
