To Betty and the entire Harris Family:
We are so sad to learn of Roger´s passing. We would to share that Roger was a wonderful man that was genuine in every way and especially the love he showed to the youth of his community. Matt & Alex thought the world of Roger and and all the Harris brothers. Each of the Harris bro´s had such an impact of their lives of becoming men. As their father, I am forever grateful. A family bond taught and proven that´s true within and outwardly.
Our prayer are forever lifted that Gods love, peace and comfort surround you all in knowing that Rogers big smile is forever glowing in the presence of our Lord. Love you all!
