What a treat it was to try Roger's barbecued rabbit at a barbeque. With his great sense of humor, I just hoped it was actually rabbit he was offering me. He always had a cheery smile and was keen to chat. Condolences to Gaylene, Robyn, Bridget and families.

So very sorry to hear. Roger was a wonderful "Santa" at Grasslands for many years, as well as his amazing support in times of emergency. He will be missed by many. Thinking of those closest to him at this difficult time and hoping the many memories bring you comfort.
