"Roger the dodger"
The Bar has changed with time. I came in the late 70's, and back then we practiced law and played together. I saw Roger hit a softball over the fence at Alpiner Park and trot the bases in white shorts and crew socks. That will be the picture I choose to remember.
To the Family of Roger:
I have had the honor and privilege to work with Roger for over 15 years. He was a true inspiration to me and the entire legal community. He was always upbeat and willing to lend a hand. I will be forever grateful for the time that we worked together. What a great role model he has been. You will not be forgotten.
