I had the pleasure of seeing Ira on several occasions as he was a dear patient at our Physicians office. He was always very kind and upbeat. Prayers to the family of Ira!
I WILL MISS YOU GREATLY UNCLE GLENN YOU WAS. ALWAYS LIKE A FATHER TO ME I LOVE YOU ALWAYS be with all the love ones in heaven now Uncle Glenn I will miss you always love your niece Shirley Scott
Wanted say few things in memory of my great grandpa. I went to see him every week and he’d put the biggest grin on his face. He’d smile even bigger if my son Malachi was with me. The last time grandpa saw Malachi I told photo because they were smiling at each other. Grandpa was also holding Malachi hand while sitting on grandpa lap. I could be in worst moods ever and go over there and he just brightened my day. Last thing he said to me on Sunday was I Love You My Beautiful Granddaughter and I Always Will. Ill hold that with me forever. Rest easy youll always be with me in my heart. Love you grandpa and miss you dearly.
I am sorry for your families loss. I knew Ira when he was able to drive and do his own banking. I had shared with him that his daughter in law Lynn was my bestfriend growing up. Every time he saw me he’d ask how they were and if I had talked to her lately or he would just ask me to say hello. It saddened me, I felt there must be an estrangment. He was always sweet and friendly to me and I’ve missed his smile and conversation these last several years. May God bless his soul.

First I would like to state, at this moment I am speechless remembering your contribution to my life that others may not be aware of, below are those thoughts and memories.Things I’ve learned from you by you just being you.Life is an opportunity: Bennifit from it.
Life is beautiful: Admirer it.
Life is a dream: Realize it.
Life is a challenge: Rise above it.
Life is a duty: Compleate it.
Life is a game: Play it.
Life is a promise: Fullfill it.
Life is sorrow: Over come it.
Life is a song: Sing it.
Life is a struggle: Except it.
Life is a tragedy: Confront it.

I also know that I’m definitely allot like you in so many ways lolololol. So as the days continue for me I will not loose who you are nore will I forget.
I also know you are in no more pain or suffering in this thing we all call life. Which makes me happy for you. So I will try not to be sad.
I know our situation is very unusual and very diffrent, but we never let that effect our relationship as daughter and father. We pulled threw and stood tall threw the test that came oyr way.
We handeled all the past with care to the point that we grew to know one another very well. What others opinions of you may be I do not care, I know you loved me and always was there in the best way possible. I forgive you for any past and love you for the life and love we did have.
I respect the fact that you were so brutally honest even when I disagreed.
You were who you were you never veered. This allowed me to trust in what you would say and do. You were never ever hateful just to be hateful. Which was so need at many times.
You were funny in your own way, lololol that some might say was a very dry sense of humor. Hahaha. But I understood it very well.
So dad thank you for just being who you were, because that was perfect for me.
Rest in peace…. ??????????
Wake into your new dream, free from all hurt and pain. Love your Daughter Tina Roegge
