17 Oct 2005 I would like to say that he was very fondly remembered by his late sister, Jo Ann Roddin (nee Genau). I have heard many stories about my late uncle, and how close the two of them were with one another. He held a piece of her heart up until her untimely passing in 1992. From his niece, Susan Jones (nee Roddin) Staten Island, New York E-Mail will be forwarded by the Webmaster@VirtualWall.org

The point-of-contact for this memorial is his niece, Susan Roddin Jones stephwraps@hotmail.com 30 Jun 2002
