Roger's View of the World, Love and Seafood Gumbo!
Seize the Day! Put no trust in the morrow! — Horace
There were so many heroes… so many Trojans that deserve recognition. However, my heart goes out to two who did a wonderful job setting the tone of the game… Ray Maualuga running back his interception for a touchdown is a highlight ( I played linebacker as a youth… loved that feeling!) and our quarterback… what can I say but “Viva Sanchez!”
The running backs fit the Trojan mold perfectly… who will shine the greatest the season is still unfolding!
Congrats to all!

Laura’s family has suffered a bit this year with the passing of both her Mother June Sievers and her younger brother Leroy Sievers.
Above is a picture I have posted before of Laura and Leroy around 1980 and then a picture of Leroy and his wife “Laurie”. The last picture is of June and me… the ‘old me’ before I lost half of me.
Leroy’s Blog “My Cancer” has clearly touched a lot of folks… and hopefully, someone will maintain it on-line as a resource for others who are facing this end-of-life experience with cancer.
Tomorrow, a service will be broadcast on-line and you are invited to watch. Here’s how NPR describes it:
Hi Friends,
This Sunday, Sept. 14, a small group of Leroy’s friends and family are gathering for a celebration of his life. Space is very limited and it’s an invitation-only event, so we’re opening up the celebration online. We will have a live audio stream of the event from 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. EST. A chat room will also be open so you can share memories and have a conversation.
All of it will be posted right here Sunday afternoon. We hope to see you then!
UPDATE: Yes, we will also post an archived version of the event for those of you who can’t listen in live.
