The OLDER Photographers' thread...

Google can be your friend:

There is a "Roger Benson" who lives in Arizona.

Assuming Roger is 20DRoger here, we'd probably need a last name to find more local info for him.

Breton.

There's a Roger Breton in AZ ph# 520-586-xxxx. 71 years old, I think. Also got a "has lived in Benson, AZ," associated with this info.

Anyone want to call? I get no cell phone reception in my current location at work.

edit: I'll try when I go to chow here in a bit.

With a full name and small town location, it shouldn't be hard to look up a phone number.

Who around here would be relatively local? I know Jay and Nick are in Arizona.

The ph# I found "has been disconnected, or is no longer in service."

Same couple, Rene and Roger (both 71), also listed as living in Avondale AZ. But I'm having a hard time locating a number.

I think Roger posted recently that he was 75.

Not such a good idea to post a person's phone number publicly unless you're going to edit it out soon. That one was out of service, but there may be more.

true

Rene and Roger are both his name.

His wife left him awhile ago.

Guess that would explain the Rene Roger Breton I found.
So Rene is his real first name?

Yeah, in the link that OhLook posted earlier he talks about Americans having difficulty with his name.

Maybe he just took a vacation to France for a month and is enjoying some wine and cycling and photography.

I know for my own self that I don't have time to follow multiple forums, one, maybe two and I can keep up somewhat, but too many and I can't follow along. So my hopefull guess is that he is off following other interests for a bit and will wander back through here eventually.

FWIW, I did an obit search for his name and none came back in the state of Arizona. Perhaps his computer crashed or, more possibly, since the phone is no longer in service, he would most likely have no internet at the moment either. I think he is fine and will be back soon. And when he reads this he will either love us or be very very angry. I blame Chet.

Just a guess. I'm thinking it's an old phone number, and maybe he's moved since. Possibly from Benson to Avondale?
