Today, our Mr. Roman would have been 80 years old. He is missed every day, and we remain so grateful that he taught for 32 years in Bogota and likewise that he was a friend to so many in Fairview, Cliffside, and beyond - Rough Riders friends and more.
He loved you all, and said so often. Knowing he was remembered in happy thoughts was his greatest joy.
Thank you for thinking of him. Put on some good music when you can — Peter, Paul, & Mary; The Beach Boys…his big wish was that the love for music he shared with us live on. Know your states, capitals and largest cities 🙂 and if you ever have the chance, make learning fun for a child or a friend. -AK
