Aunt Dottie, Terri, Tim and family so sorry to hear of Uncle Roland’s passing. I was also a fan of his quick wit and funny loving nature. I know it’s been a while since we’ve all been together but you’re in my thoughts and prayers and hope to see you tomorrow!

Our condolences to Dottie and the children. I was so glad I talked to Roland on his birthday. He always brought much joy to any discussion. And his stories were most interesting. Janet. and Jim, too
