Hi All:

Most of you probably didn't know Roger Auman, who passed away earlier this week. Roger was a longtime avid contra dancer, a fine caller, an inventive choreographer, and most of all, as nice a person as you could ever hope to meet. We would cross paths at dances in Princeton, Philly, Bethlehem, and many other places, and for several years we had this routine; I would come up to him at the break, and ask "What do you have today?" and he would show me a new dance every time. It was fun to watch him progress from first-timer efforts to good to outright winners. Attached are some of the gifts he left us.

Roger hailed from Reading, PA, and if you happen to be at the nearby Birdsboro contra dance tomorrow, we will dance several of his to remember him. For those of us in the Mid-Atlantic region who knew him well, he will be truly missed -

Bob
