From the day he was born, he stared up at people like he had always known them.
He was a beautiful, strong, and attentive little boy. He had already started smiling, cooing, and sometimes even laughing.
He was preceded in death by his 'Popsy', Perry Vandergriff. He is survived by his loving mother Jill, father Jon-Michael,
and big sister Holden Vandergriff; 'PawPaw' Edward and 'Nana' Sandra Payseur; his 'Diny' Dianne and Aunt McCaull Vandergriff;
Aunt Wendy, Uncle Jay, cousins Corey and Ty Holcomb; as well as many beloved friends and family
including our Good Shepherd Church family.
A memorial service will be held in his honor on Tuesday, April 11 at 11 a.m. at Good Shepherd Church,
13110 Moss Road, Charlotte NC 28273.
Attendees are encouraged to wear blue or navy in remembrance of Roark.
Family and friends may pay their respects following the service.
Arrangements are by McEwen Funeral Service, Pineville, NC.
