Pat Thompson of Diamond Design, St. John's, Newfoundland refers to Roger as a Rock Star! Pat explains to his customers that an AGTA Spectrum or Cutting Edge Award compares to a Grammy, an Oscar or a Golden Globe. Hence the Rock Star label which is fitting since Roger won 2nd place with his 8.77 ct. Merelani Mint Garnet!
What's even better than a Rock Star? Rock Stars collaborating with Rock Stars!
