Such a shock to learn of Rogers death, a lovely kind, warm, fit, gentleman. Through him my late husband David, and I became the Jason's distributors for Nelson and surrounding areas, and met some lovely people, visiting lovely, beautiful places. Nancy, my heart goes out to you and your family. Seems so unreal this should happen to you, as did me 9 weeks ago. All my love and thoughts, Wendy Wadman

Dear Nancy and family. Immensely sad to hear that Roger has passed away. I have such fond memories of working with Roger at Jasons. His sense of humour lightened our days and I still remember him laughing so much one day when we were coding accounts that he fell off his chair! Cue more hilarity. Roger always had stories to share about his girls and was so proud of his lovely family. Don and I are thinking of you all. With much love, Dianne Roulston.
