This is how Roger Palarchio is remembered by some of his friends: lt is always hard to lose a young man in his youth, but for those who knew Roger Palarchio it is still hard to believe he is gone from our side. Rog was 125 lbs. of laughter and goodness. He was the nicest guy around. He was easy to make friends with and once you were his friend you were friends forever. He never caused any trouble, because he had his mind set on one thing-his diploma. To Roger a diploma was the most important dream that had to be fulfilled. His parents were very proud of him because he would have been the only person in the family to graduate. Roger could often be heard telling his friends how he wanted his parents at his graduation. He was always neatly dressed. You would never see Rog without a sweater, or his shoes shined and a smile on his face. He had a lot of pride in his personal appearance. His diploma and his G.T.O. were the things he cherished most. lf you were driving down the road and the traffic was jammed up and you saw a blue Goat going 40 m.p.h., you knew it was Rog. He took care of his car like a baby. He always had respect for a car. Like his mother said, l never thought he would get in an accident. He taught people how to have respect for an automobile, and how to say No. lf Roger knew something was wrong he would never have had a hand in it. Rog had a walk all of his own. lt was kind of a happy-go-lucky walk. He would walk into the lobby of school with either his Law book or the keys to his car in his hand-always playing with those keys.
