Roger B. Shell Sr. was the best friend I ever had. I was in an accident several years ago with a broken collar bone, so I was in a sling and couldn't shovel my snow. I would wake up and look outside, and my driveway, sidewalk, and car were cleaned of snow. This is the kind of person Roger was, always busy doing something productive. May my buddy's soul rest in peace.

Matthew Wright
