2 Timothy 4:7-8
7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8 Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.

As a councillor Roger would assist all, both band council and hereditary supporters. We lost a dedicated community leader and great guy.

My deepest condolences to Tania and all the families, Roger was a good friend to both my husband and I, He served on our Six Nations Health Foundation for many years, he barbequed hamburgs and hotdogs for our community events and helped sell tickets for all our draws. For our Christmas name draw,he told me all he wanted was a Canadian tire gift card so that is what I got for him, he was so happy. We enjoyed many a meal together. Suffering is gone now. With love from Bonnie and Cecil Davis and families.
