Sorry to hear about Roger's passing. It was an honor to know Roger. He was a pioneer, a gentleman, & a knowledgeable man in the sports card industry. He will be truly missed by all the card dealers that knew him.

Very sorry to hear this. I knew Roger for more than 15 years. He was one of the few guys that you knew would be at every show and he'd usually have great stuff in tow. He helped me out as a collector many times, plus he made me laugh. I'll miss him.

Nice guy, soft-spoken, took the time to chat with collectors. I didn't know him well, but it was always a pleasure to hang out with him talking cards and make an occasional deal. He will be missed. RIP.

Like Bill, I knew Roger from the Shriner Auditorium Shows.

It's always sad to see the passing of dealers or collectors.

Rest in peace Mr Burns.

Was a great guy and I considered him a hobby friend. He will certainly be missed. Always enjoyed talking cards and baseball and pretty much any topic with him. Sleep in the stars old friend.

It's hard not to have picked up something from Roger if you've been collecting pre-war cards for any length of time. I think I met him at my first White Plains show and bought a 1934 Goudey Dizzy Dean from him. Nice man. He will be missed.
