  Roger was raised on an 80 acre farm in southern Illinois. He enjoyed fixing and riding bikes all over the countryside and as soon as he was able to drive enjoyed fixing and racing cars. On the farm he learned to fix and maintain equipment and was planting, harvesting and raising livestock from a vey young age. He enlisted in the Navy Seabees between 1964-1968, he served in Vietnam between 1967-1968. His rank was E3 and served in MCB-128th.

    Roger,<br />
It was an honor to have served our country in the US NAVY.  You in the Seabees and me on a tin can, a destroyer, the US Leary DDR-879.<br />
And it was great to have you as a good friend, and co-worker here at Raintree.  Love you and going to miss you a lot.<br />

    Roger was a great example of someone who put others before himself. We didn’t know him well, since we just to met him and Linda this past year after he was already in his battle. Even though he was ill, he continued to volunteer when you could tell he didn’t feel well. May he Rest in Peace knowing he truly made a positive difference in the lives of many. He will be missed by all who knew him. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.

    I wished I had gotten to know Roger, sooner. He always had a smile and was a friend to everyone.
    Heaven’s gate gladly opened for you. The angels sang your welcome and God and Jesus rejoiced of your homecoming.
    God bless Linda and give her comfort with the memories she shared with Roger.
