In his healthier days Roger enjoyed hunting, fishing, talking and visiting with his many special buddies. He was an amazing cook who loved feeding anyone he could. He loved his family at Little Milligan Baptist Church. He also adored his best friends, dogs Bubba and Kota, who will miss their buddy very much.
