Memorial Service for Roger was perfect.




The memorial service for Roger was held this evening and there was a great showing of family and friends. The Aquatic Center was a brilliant idea and it made many of us feel like we were there with Roger. It was something to experience the Marine Core 21 gun salute with an intense closing flag ceremony. Having the opportunity to get up and speak with Roger's family members and other close friends allowed us all to share special stories. A special thanks to all of the cyclist friends who came out in jerseys to support Roger and his life passion of sprinting and spinning on the American River Bike trail with all of you.


MEMORIAL DISPLAY - DONATIONS:
Arrangements are in progress to set up a display at Bicycles Plus in Folsom in a week or so. The display will include Rogers bike, photo, and a donation collection to help fund a nice bench or display item to be approved and placed on the bike trail near the spot near Mile Marker 22 in memory of Roger. If you have any questions about the bike trail memorial or donations, please feel free to send me a message on this forum. Will update this thread again next week. Thanks.
