Damn, I was hoping for one more hunt with Roger. I have very fond memories of the ruffled grouse hunt that I had the privilege to be on with Roger near Iron River Mi. Than talking with him at the S X S shoot was always a pleasure. He was a fine person and I will miss him. Frank Halsey

Roger was quite some guy and Linda and I will miss him. He sure was not one to attempt to blend into the crowd if the crowd somehow did not go his way. He reminds me a bit of Destry and another Mugwump whom I will not name. Excuse me if I capitalize "Mugwump" but I'm not sure of the proper form. I'm sure Roger would have told me if this form is correct, or not. Thank you Destry for keeping us informed of Roger's situation. Rest in peace, Roger, and Anita, please be well.

i too am lost as too what a mugwamp is....bet bill and destrey know....im still sad over rodger codger... charlie

[Bill Murphy]

A "mugwump" is a person who is a member of an organization or political party who agrees with the general "constitution" of the organization, but takes exception to those who violate that "constitution" for their own benefit. Roger definitely was an independent spirit.

Way back when, a politician was called a "Mugwump" when he could not be pinned down regarding his opinion on any certain political matter. It was said his "Mug" was on one side of the fence and his "Wump" was on the other

I didn't know Roger but will honor him by carrying on.

[Bill Murphy]

Yes, Roger was a mugwump. That's why we didn't hear much from him. He knew where his friends were.

Oh, my. I've been away from the forum for quite a while, and have just learned of Roger's passing. Roger was one of the good guys, and though I've never met him I'll miss his presence here. Who tell us tales about Ol' Klunker, and whom can we now count on to PTG? My prayers and sympathies are extended to his family and those of you who were close friends. Thanks, Destry.

I'll never forget the trip Roger, Destry and I made to the Southern one year. Those stories will live on forever and they still make me laugh.

Goodbye Roger.
