Roger gave a stage to all
of us
home-grown rock stars to play on.
He understood how inspirational music can
be.
Music is ment to be heard and shared.
Roger listened and shared.
He will be missed.

Folks - although I an
extremely late arrival to the World of Unkle
Roger, I can tell you that, at least from an
out-of-towner's perspective, it is a thrill
and an inspiration to see this outpouring of
love continue for your Unk.
Never underestimate your musical gifts, he
knew them well :)
Peace, Love, and Long Live Rog!

God Bless you Denice!
Very Kind words. Great Job Jeff and Lisa.
May this website keep all of our hearts and
words connected to one another in the honor
of Unkle Rog. All of us who were touched by
Rog are now a stronger thread in this
community. God Bless Unkle Rog and his
Passion. February 22, 2004.

Thank-you for doing this
for Unk! God, he was so cool and always made
my heart smile! I would talk to him for
hours after the bar closed while Danny and
his brother were playing backgammon. He'd
play Blondie and B52's and Devo and let me
win a few contests, too..(oops) Then when I
really did win one, where he would come down
to the arcade and dj a party for me...I
asked him how I would know him..he said
"I'll probably be the only black person
there...how will I know you?" I'll be the
shortest person there! lLisa , insert your
part of this story! Anyways, to all Long
Live Unk in our hearts! I Miss You, Unk

How nice to see the first
entry of such loving words from Denise. Very
well said Denise! I pray that your heart
heals soon! As I have told you before, thank
you for loving my dear friend the way you
have for so many years. Without your love
Rog would not have been the man we knew and
love. May you find peace soon. XOXOXO
It has been an abosolute honor working with
Jeff and others on the tribute we are
planning. We look forward to working with
you and Jason on the summer concert. (to be
announced soon!)
Thank you Jeff Cosco for the thought and
time you have put into this site. Is there
anything you can't do? What fun it will be
to read the many memories that will fill
this guestbook.

Dearest Jeff,
When Lisa called me this evening, I just had
to go to my computer while I had her on the
phone so I could see Unkie's web site for
myself. What a wonderful tribute! So very
bittersweet. You did an amazing job and I
love it!
In addition to Roger's passion for music and
helping the local musicians get a leg up, he
also had a passion for making a difference
in the world...the part of the world he
thought he could affect at least. This is
why he chose to become a landlord in the
Susan B. Anthony area. He recognized a
need..and tried to bring solutions to it. He
wanted to show this city that people can
change when someone cares. Not every
landlord is a "slum" lord, and that everyone
has a situation that deserves some patience
and understanding. He wasn't just a
landlord..he was a friend. I remember him
bringing our bottles and cans, used clothing
and other household items to his tenants who
were in need. I KNOW he made a difference.
This is the legacy he has left me...one
which I intend to carry on in his
memory...keeping him alive in this way.
Saying "thank you" is such a simple phrase
to tell someone who has done as much as you
and Lisa have done for us. I can only offer
my help with love for any projects you may
have coming up. It's time for all of us to
be strong and continue down the path that he
so boldly and lovingly cleared for us.
God Bless you so much!
Love,
Denise
