Roger was born September 18, 1948 and passed away May 8, 2017 in Key West FL. Roger
was an extremely gifted, caring and talented stagehand. In July of 1981 he was awarded
the “Carnegie Medal” in recognition of an outstanding act of heroism, while working
the Royal Danish Ballet at the Civic Opera House in June 1980, saving the lives
of the principle performer and two young girls.
After retiring, Roger dedicated his life to helping and remembering his fellow veterans,
especially those in the Florida Keys.
Please try to join Rogers’ brother Don, his family and many friends for an evening
to “Remember Roger”.
Fraternally,
Thomas Herrmann
Secretary-Treasurer
