It was a honor to have known Mrs. Roger’s as a neighbor, but mostly as a friend for all these years. I miss her deeply. Love you always.
1981 was the year Nancy chose me to work with her at DR. K’S and from that time on, as we said, we were joined at the hips, best friends forever, with frank and family and yes even Rudy, blessed with love, joy, and memories. RIP, in our hearts forever. They say, when you can’t find the words, no worries, GOD HEARS YOUR HEART.
