I had the good fortune to meet Roland for the first time only a few weeks ago, in a long-distance virtual meeting with his daughter Maureen, and another colleague, Larry Oliver. As we ended our hour together, I felt amazingly connected to this lively, bright, humorous and absolutely loving man and father. I knew that I had just met an exceptional person, one I would enjoy working with on any project, and whom I would never forget. Larry and I talked about it, and marveled at the quick deep connection that Roland made with us. On hearing of his passing just last week, I felt the emotional impact and void of losing someone that I had known deeply and well for many years. That's the kind of impact he made. My heart and loving support stand in service to his entire family, and especially to Gail and Maureen, as they walk this path. Thank you for sharing him with us!
