So sad to hear the news, but no more suffering and being frustrated not able to do things. A good friend to all and so knowledgeable in many things. I will miss his conversations and ideas.

I sailed across the rainbow, and through the sea of gold,
and there I met a dragon, and asked him very bold,
"Am I to believe you sir, that you are real?"
"Reality is relative" said he, "but let us make a deal.
You believe that you are quite concrete, yet this may not be true.
But if you will believe in me, my friend, then I will believe in you".

Edith and Liz
So sorry about Roland going on but no more suffering. We will all miss him but we will also be glad he was with us in the past. He and Edith had a lot of good years together and he was a good father too.
Take care and appreciate the past---Decker
