    One of our own is very ill……

    For the last 30 hours a number of SoCal RGruppe and Early S folks have been waiting by their phones and computers for word about our dear friend Roger Grago.

    Roger went into surgery late yesterday afternoon for a brain tumor. He is now thankfully out of surgery and in recovery.
    We have kept this off the boards for respect to Roger’s wife Terri and family … then after their permission, we waited until after the surgery.

    Roger and his family now need the love, thoughts, prayers, and support of our community.

    Roger and family are at the Saddleback Memorial Hospital in Laguna Hills.

    For now the family has requested their privacy … we will up-date when this changes.

    What can I say….. Roger is one of the most loved and respected people I know……

    Sincerely,
    Chuck

    Chuck,
    Please give my best to Roger and his family. Tell Roger that I'm looking forward to another spirited drive with him up Hwy 101 in his early 911 when he recovers.

    keeping him in my thoughts and prayers. any details on if it is benign or malignant? my mom had a brain tumor back in 03, but it was benign. surgery stopped the seizures and other issues, and after a year she was back to her old self. its scary, no matter how you look at it, but its amazing how advanced medicine has come in just a short time. I am hoping and praying for the same or even better for Roger.


    here is to hoping to see him posting about driving and enjoying his porsche and everything else this life has to offer, and seeing him back on his feet in no time.

    keeping you in our thoughts Rog!
