Today is a sad day to report the passing of Dr. Roger K. Leir, we have lost a great family man, podiatrist and devoted ufologist. He will be greatly missed by all.

I was in my car yesterday when Richard Shaw phoned and told me.

“Have you heard?”

“Heard what I asked.”

“Oh, I guess you haven’t heard yet.” He paused for a moment and I heard in his voice that something was wrong. “Roger died yesterday of a heart attack…”

“What?” I said in disbelief, stunned by what I was hearing.

Richard continued letting me know that Roger had gone to the doctor because his ankle was flaring up again.  He went into the bathroom and apparently had a heart attack while in there.  Efforts to revive him failed.

Dr. Roger Leir & L.A. January 4th – 2014

Today is a sad day to report the passing of Dr. Roger K. Leir, we have lost a great family man, podiatrist and devoted ufologist. He will be greatly missed by all.

I was in my car yesterday when Richard Shaw phoned and told me.

“Oh, I guess you haven’t heard yet.” He paused for a moment and I heard in his voice that something was wrong. “Roger died yesterday of a heart attack…”

Richard continued letting me know that Roger had gone to the doctor because his ankle was flaring up again.  He went into the bathroom and apparently had a heart attack while in there.  Efforts to revive him failed.

I first met Dr. Leir or as Richard and I have come to call him between us, Uncle Roger, at a MUFON meeting in 1999.  Nephilim had just been published and I went to the meeting to see author Barry Chamish, who had also written a book on the Nephilim.  While there I was introduced for the first time to Dr. Roger Leir.  I had heard about him and his recent extraction of an alleged alien implant.  We talked for a while about UFOs and implants and then I asked him, what the implant looked like.

He reached into his coat pocket and produced a small vial and looking at me with an impish grin said, Here it is, want to take a look?
