I have so many memories of our days as kids. You were the brother I did not have and we spent so much time together. We did not stay in touch like we should have, but I have the memories that I will cherish forever. Especially when you lived with us for a while and went to North High School in Des Moines. I thought it was great to have you drop me off at school. Till later, love always.

Words can not express the way I am feeling right! Daddy I just want you to know how much I miss and love you! You never turned your back on me, even when my decisions caused you pain or you did not understand why i was doing what i was doing! You showed me what true unconditional love really means! I am more than honored to be your daughter and also your friend! I love you so much!! XXXOOO

It all began with a black pair of wingtips and an evening on the Queen Mary in Long Beach Harbor. Thank you Willy for 27 plus wonderful years of happy memories. I hope you and dad have made it to the causeway. I love you and miss you, your Clem.

always a loved man i remember the candy and good times going to church and times with jennifer in your basement and kings dominion you were great man <3

One of the dearest men I've ever known. Been thinking about all the good times we had. How he never could say no to us-once we asked if we could borrow his Jeep and paint it camouflage for VBS-he drove it into the CoC for us and told us to go for it. He was so kind, always went out of his way to help anyone-whether he knew them or not. I will miss that smile and laugh most of all.

I know we have not seen much of each other over the years. But I do have a lot of memories of when we were younger.I remember going snow sledding on hospital hill, in Webster City, with the whole clan. It was such a big hill then. Then Terry and you came back and laughed as it was not as big as you remembered.So many memories to hold on to.Love you cuz. Say hi to all you join.

Roger was the extra dad I never expected to have when I moved away from my family into the unknown of Arizona. I didn't expect to find more family in the desert but that's exactly what I found. Not only did he adopt my husband and I he fully adopted our two children and was a wonderful grandfather to them... and the best Hagrid every. I will miss him everyday. Love you Willy!!
