To Rodger's family,
I just learned of Rodger's passing today and was shocked and saddened, so can only imagine the loss you feel.
Rodger was my hair stylist first,then we became friends. We had many long and interesting conversations about life and family, goals and aspirations. He didn't suffer fools, and asked no less of others of what he asked of himself.
He had a great flare for style - really Saskatoon was too small for him. The last time we had coffee, more than a year ago to my great sadness, he looked amazing and was in fine Rodger form.
He wrote to me a couple of months ago, I was happy to hear from him. He talked about being happy, having hung his sheets out on the line and the fresh smell the sheets would have, kind of like when he was a boy.
I am hopeful that he was surrounded by loved ones when he passed.
Sincerly,
Renee Gavigan
