Add my son’s birthday party, having a blast.

At my son’s birthday party, having a blast.

Tough to get the words to say.  We spoke all the time and I wouldn’t haven’t been able to get through that tour without your support. You truly had an impact on everyone around you and you are missed so much. Love you brother.

Last toast with (Red) Roger Dale Smith Jr, October 2024.

Roger, I am so saddened to hear of your passing. Thank you for your friendship especially during some of the lowest times in my life. You always had something whity and funny to say but always encouraging. You are truly missed.

Roger you were one of the first guys I met on the Oly. All the hours we spent on watch together will never be forgotten. All the stories that got shared will forever be etched in my memory. You are a true friend and I’m proud to have gotten to know you.  As painful as it might be I’ll cheer on the Broncos first TD against the Chiefs next season in your honor.

First met you when I started tagging along with NoXcuse. You were a dedicated member and true friend, no matter your choice of motorcycle brand lol. I'll miss riding with you brother. Enjoy those forever turns in heaven.

Chillin on the beach again…. Working on that tan :) I’m missing you so much.

We had so many good times in Hawaii. This is where I first met you through our shared interest of riding. It’s was never a dull moment with you.

This is my favorite photo- Raj with my lil grands at our house. He had a way of making everyone a part of his life. You touched us all. Cancis & Fidel loss one of their best friends and it hasn’t been easy for them to process this. My prayers go out to his mother, brother and his beautiful baby boy Liam-for protection, comfort and know they are surrounded by love during this difficult time.

Roger was a man of few words.  He cared and loved like no other.  We could go weeks and months without talking but when we did, it was like we just spoke.  He loved his family, he loved the Navy, and he loved Hawaii.  He leaves a huge hole in all of our hearts.  Love you Raj.

Had the honor of having Roger as my commissioning officer last year. He was a true friend and mentor. No matter how busy and overwhelmed he was at work, he always took the time to listen to you. He was always all in all the time taking care of his sailors and their families. I can’t explain with words how much he’ll be missed.

Rob Lazarin and Roger outside the Horse and Cow in Guam. March 2022.  We served together on the USS SANTA FE (SSN 763) from 2007-2010 and were roommates for a year in 2008.  He was a good friend and will be greatly missed.
