To my colleague, Tim Hoskins and family, Our Lord Jesus stated in the Holy Writ, And He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness" Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. 2 Corinthians 12:9

Rollin was a wonderful man. He had so many  talents, and working with his hands was his best one. I have an old stone house, and Rollin did so much of the work here- he repaired my barn, he uncovered and pointed the well outside, he built my fireplace surround from stone from our property, he repaired the the wall in our diningroom, he uncovered the stone wall in my kitchen, he designed and built the manure container behind the barn- laying the block, and then building the wall around it, he jackhammered the concrete out of my stalls and stone dusted them, and he layed and hammered all the boards on our deck. Everywhere I look around here, Rollin helped us to build this farm. He will be sorely missed by my family, as he contributed so much around here. I just found out about his death, and I am so sorry about it, I wish I had known sooner as I would have attended a service for him. I know he had a lot of stuggles in his life, and I just want to say how much I thought of him, and what a steady worker he was. He kind of became part of our extended family, as he even was kind enough to attend my daughter's wedding about 7 years ago. So sorry to learn of his passing. He wll be greatly missed.
