We Entrusted Roger Logar's Care To

Accent Funeral Home

A local landmark in Meridian, Accent Funeral Home has been serving the community since 1986. The business was first established with a vision to offer services in a comfortable, homelike atmosphere. This vision is reflected in our building, a Tudor-style home built in 1938 for a local postman. When remodeling the house to accommodate the funeral home, much care was taken to preserve the original architectural integrity of the building. The Accent Funeral Home holds a special relationship with the Meridian community and is sensitive to the area’s changing needs, providing service and friendship to comfort those we serve.

With too much time on my hands, I was looking up the names of childhood friends; Roger was one of them. I lived on Lawrence Street in West Hempstead. Roger lived just down the block from me, same side. We hung out quite a bit. We were good friends. There was an incident in our young lives that I ... we would never forget. It must have been around 1960, and as I remember, we were about twelve years old. We were hanging out together at some platform of a train station. I don't remember what we were doing there. While we were walking along, three guys of high school age approached us and took hold of our arms. They told us that they were Junior railroad police. They dragged us over to a stairwell that led down from the platform and we got mugged. I'll never forget that day. I'm sure that Roger didn't either. We don't have any choice of what memories we carry throughout our lives. I just wanted to share this one with you. He will always be remembered. Paul
