I was so saddened to hear of Mr. Blackwell's passing. I had gotten to know him over the last few years as a favorite customer of mine at the bank where I work in Rogers, AR. He would pop in occasionally on his way to or from pickle ball. Always pleasant and full of warmth and laughter. Bragged about his children and shared old teaching stories with us. His presence here will be deeply missed. Prayers for all during this difficult time.

Wow! What a huge loss we have felt by Roger's passing. He was one in a million. He will be fondly remembered. His smile was contagious and his twinkling eyes were showing his enjoyment of the moment in his life. Rest in peace, Roger; we will see you again. What a hole you have left in this earthly presence of life. Until we meet again, be assured you have touched each of us. We will never forget you. Much love, Cheryl

I played football with Roger while we were at Great Bend High School. When I think about Roger, I remember his kind of impish smile along with his playfulness and laughter in the company of fellow students and staff. He had the highest integrity and could be counted on when you needed him (e.g. making another touchdown when having a trailing score with an opposing team). To Roger's family, friends: I can't of a worse time to lose a loved than during a traditional holiday like X-Mass. Our special condolences go out to each of you during this very stressful, difficult time. Time will heal.

Along with hundreds of other kids in Roger’s hometown (Great Bend KS), I watched Roger play point guard on his high school basketball court with unbelievable energy and outstanding skill & speed! Take Roger in your arms Lord Jesus! He’s one of ours!

Roger was a coworker of mine many years ago at Pineville Elementary. My name is Tanya Groves. My daughter Krystal Groves was in his Lil group that would go around and do puppet acts from class to class when he was our school counselor. He was a very friendly and welcoming person.

Sorry to hear of Rogers passing. He will be missed. He subbed on our bowling league in Bella Vista. Even if he wasn't bowling he was there with his smiling face and a hay, how you doing
