Thanks for informing us, Team Owner.

RIP Roger. My prayers to the family.

His name, nearly synonomous with Indianapolis.

Sounds like he was a great racer in his day, and had a big impact in the direction Indy racing took in those days. He deserves attention, and certainly deserves the correct spelling of his name (Rodger) in the title.

I met Mr. Ward a few years back at Indy...such a lovely, kind, and gracious man
The news is not unexpected but very sad, all the same.
RIP, Mr. Ward

Truly one of the greats. When you read about these gentlemen you realize how closely triumph and tragedy are associated with the 500.

May the Everlasting Light shine upon him.
