It has been an extremely difficult month for my family. My father, Roger Orzol was diagnosed with Mesothelioma on December 23rd and succumbed to this illness at 12:45 a.m. February 1.
My father was able to attend the last Sacramento crawl in October and was registered as "Pyscho Tiki D's Dad". He has a great time meeting everyone there and was in awe of every host who participated and opened their homes up for this event.
Too short a time for his family. We will and do miss him very much.
Here is the link to his obituary:

See you soon Dad!

Duane, my condolences and sympathies to you and your family. I am so glad that I was able to meet your very charismatic father at the Sac Tiki Crawl last year, I enjoyed talking with him at the Mandarin, at Matt's and then again at Dan & Wendy's pad. He was a cool dude.

I can't believe Whitney has received more coverage than Etta James.
Born-January 25, 1938
Died-January 20, 2012
Very sad indeed.
