Richie, I am missing you so much. I think of you all the time. I still cannot believe you are gone. I know you are up there with Anthony, Stephen and all our doggies. I love you my dear wonderful amazing brother and will see you on the other side.

Just thinking of you friend, and missing you desparately. Love you. Mean it. smooooich.

Roscoe, we're going to miss you on RDN!  However, Major is keeping it up and going and we're all trying to behave in your absence.  You will always live on in the hearts of those who also love your breed.  

I hope our Rotties up there with you are behaving!  Miss you Big Guy!!!

Roscoe, you will be so missed by so many people! From another member of RDN - you touched my life profoundly; Thank you for all that you did. My sympathies to Roscoe's family and friends.

Richie, 
I will never forget all the trouble we got onto growing up. The times we played hooked from school and we went to Coney Island,  how we set the kitchen curtain on fire when we lived on Moffitt St.  How you were Tony's (my husband) partner in crime and you took him to the strip joints.  What I would not do to have those days back. I love you so much and miss you. You are one of the best brother's a girl could have.
PA do not worry about Avon, Jessica, Donovan or Elijah, I have them covered

Richie,   You are my strength and the mighty rock that will always hold the Kamer family together.   Your heart was  true and brave and held more love than ever thought possible.  I am blessed to have you in my life.   No matter what, you were at my side - to help, to protect and to love me.  I am forever grateful for all you gave and will always love you.    Avon

I will never forget the day I met you and Frank, you two were the Heart and Soul of that plant.  Now I am left with many fond memories of you and I and the other brothers putting work in and shaping that place into what it has been the last 13 years.  I will never forget the good times we all had after work and the great conversation we have had..your memory will live on with us here at work and you will truly be missed.  Much love my brother.. "Your watch here is over, Marine...you shall now protect Heavens gates"

Roscoe,
we never met in real life but now I feel like I lost someone I deeply respected for what you were.A man with a hart on the right place.One day maybe we will also meet over our Rainbowbridge.
Until then.You will be missed but not forgotten.

Roscoe/Richie, You were such an important advocate for our beloved Rotties.  Thank you! We will miss you terribly at the RDN.  RIP and fly high with the angels.
My deepest condolences to the family,

Richie...you will be sorely missed by the rottweiler community.  The forums you built allowed us all to share knowledge and a love for our breed and the Rottstocks were a blast.  We alll gained new friends due to RDN and for all this I will be forever grateful.

Thank you Roscoe for all you have done for us at RDN. The knowledge I have gained from the forum is unmeasurable. You will be missed by many. Deepest condolences to Roscoe's family. Rest in Peace Roscoe.

Without ever meeting you I became a better Rottweiler owner because of you.  I hope my Dottie met you at the bridge.  My thoughts and prayers are with your family and loved ones.

Roscoe. The Rottweiler world is poorer for your loss.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for RDN. I've learnt so much, and dogs (and their families) have benefited so much.
To your family; Thank you for sharing. Please know you're in my thoughts.
Deepest respect.

Thank you for all the knowledge you have given to so many of us over the years, you will be greatly missed by so many members of RDN. My thoughts and prayers to Roscoe's family & friends.

While we have never met in person your work has touched my life incredibly. I am so grateful for your dedication and hardwork for so many. There has been a great loss, but I know that each of us that you have made such an impact upon will remember you and strive to make as much of a difference. May your wings lift you higher so that you may watch over us from above.

Good bye my friend. We never met face to face, but you were like a BROTHER. My wishes for healing to Roscoe's real family. My RDN family we will NEVER be the same without ROSCOE. RIP SWEETIE

Until we meet again my friend I will keep you in my heart. I will do all I can to help spread the wisdom that I learned from you.  My thoughts and prayers go to your family.  I thank them for sharing you.

I miss you very much Roscoe, and find it hard to believe you are gone. You did so much for the Rottweiler breed by creating, and running rott.net. We will make you proud and continue your work.
My condolences to your family.

A portion of the words from a poem often shared on RDN.
Gone From My Sight
I am standing upon the seashore. A ship, at my side,
spreads her white sails to the moving breeze and starts
for the blue ocean. She is an object of beauty and strength.
I stand and watch her until, at length, she hangs like a speck
of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other.

Then, someone at my side says, "There, she is gone"

Gone where?

Gone from my sight. That is all. She is just as large in mast,
hull and spar as she was when she left my side.
And, she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port.

Her diminished size is in me -- not in her.
And, just at the moment when someone says, "There, she is gone,"
there are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices
ready to take up the glad shout, "Here she comes!"
Roscoe - you were that ship - gone now only from my sight.  Your lessons will always be in my mind - your laughter in my ears - and your special special "you"ness - in my heart.
Till we meet again - Lisa (Bucky's Mom)

Brother, your memory lives in my mind and your spirit lives in my heart. I'll cherish each forever.......

Not how did he die, but how did he live.
Not what did he gain, but what did he give
These are the units to measure the worth
Of a man as a man, regardless of birth.

Richie, you gave so much to the Rottweiler world that there are no words to repay that debt of gratitude.Rottweiler.Net was the House that Roscoe built. You were the greatest "community organizer" there ever was. So many people from shore to shore to across the world have become friends and gained so much knowledge about the breed you loved and guarded so. I will always be grateful for our friendship, not only with you but your lovely family. I can't thank you enough and I will always keep you in a special place in my heart Until we meet again my friend. I expect you to keep close eye on our beloved dogs, Connie, Baby Boots and Sensi and of course all the others at the Rainbow Bridge. Love you. God Speed. Smooooch.

Your rott.net family will miss you so very much Roscoe.. we miss you and condolences to the family.   Lori Helton

Rich you were on loan from god to all of us who knew you. Heaven needed you back  home. I know you will watch over Jessica and the kids. I will always remember you as that over protective daddy who watched Jessica and I leave on our bikes everytime we hung out and of course boo boo was by your side as I am sure he is now!  And that pick up truck you had! May you rest in peace Mr. Kamer I am honored to have known you. It's never goodbye but rather until we all see you again... Spread your wings and fly you are home...I know your watching over Jess from above.
