Dearest Rollie,
You are and always will be a part of each of us forever.
You have touched our hearts and impacted our lives in ways you can never know.
Your open heart and priority for family, fills our minds with cherished memories.
From your annual birthday greeting video sung by you, to playing Santa Claus on Christmas eve to your young grandsons.
Holiday family band concerts in the garage, and endless math quizzes and spellings bees with the boys.
Your love of music, theater, camping and travel with family has created a lifetime of memories and an abundance of smiles and laughter.
We love you and celebrate your life not your death, because that is exactly what you would have wanted.
A family tribute to our loving husband, father and gramps.
To honor Rollie’s character and request, no funeral service will be held.

My condolences to the family. Having known and worked with Rollis since 1995, I feel he lived life to the fullest and didn’t leave anything untried. I’m so glad we went out for lunch at the end of October and talked about everything under to sun. Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you during this time.

Dear Vicky & family. Sam & I were so sorry to hear about Rollie’s passing. Although your time in Harvard was short, we enjoyed knowing your family & teaching with Rollie. He was one of a kind and we cannot think of him without smiling. He was just that kind of guy. We share in your sorrow.

Dan, Peg, Tom, Ann, Vicki and the whole Stussy clan,
Sorry to hear of Ronnie’s passing. The Lunde’s and Stussy’s were neighbors for a long time. Many memories. Ronnie was a good guy with a little bit of mischief thrown in. He will be missed. Thinking of all of you at your time of grief.
