Roger Huck Obituary

Roger C. Huck

Roger Christ Huck, 75, Waupun, passed away in his wife's arms on Monday, July 2, 2012 at their home while surrounded by family.

Roger was born on August 14, 1936, in Mayville, the son of Chris and Louise (Schlaak) Huck. The family moved to Waupun when he was 14, and Roger graduated from Waupun High School. He entered into service with the U.S. Army National Guard. On June 21, 1997, Roger married Sandra Siegel Grauvogl in Horicon. Roger was a devoted husband, the best dad ever, and a proud grandfather and great-grandfather. From the time he was very young, Roger had an obsession for trucks. He loved to be behind the wheel, and was a lifelong trucker. He drove for many area business, most recently Smedema Trucking in Fox Lake. Roger was very active in Waupun's annual Truck-N-Show, where he was on the Board of Directors and formerly Vice President. He looked forward to this weekend all year. His large collection of trucks was his pride and joy. Roger also enjoyed going for rides and traveling with his wife.

Roger is survived by Sandra, his treasured wife and soul mate of 15 years, seven children; Kevin Huck, Penny Huck and her fiance, Ron Rhode, Christopher Huck and his wife, Lori, Carl Huck, Carrie and her husband, Ralph Steger, Terri Grauvogl and her fiance, Christopher Hubbard, Thomas Grauvogl and his fiance, Nicole Kuhn, ten grandchildren, one great-grandchild, his sister, Marilyn and her husband, Dave Nygren, his brother, Ed Huck and special friend, Kathleen, nieces, nephews, other relatives and many friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents, and an infant son, Todd.

Funeral services will be held at 5 p.m. on Thursday, July 5, 2012 at Kohls Community Funeral Home, 405 West Main Street, Waupun, with Chaplain Laura Hawkins officiating. Military honors will be provided by American Legion Post 210 of Waupun.

Roger's family will receive relatives and friends at the funeral home on Thursday beginning at 1 p.m. until the time of service.

A memorial fund is being established in Roger's name.

Roger's family extends their thanks and appreciation to the staff of Heartland Hospice for their compassionate care.

Roger has been our neighbor for 10 years, he was one of the best neighbors a person could ask for. He would always have a chair ready for us for a fun visit. We called it a meeting of the park...We will miss you Roger.

I knew Roger from working with him at the Waupun Truck Shows. He was so much fun - had an awesome sense of humor. He was a hard worker and a fun friend! He will be greatly missed!

I've known Roger since he was 14yrs. old when they came to Waupun. We spent our school years together graduating in 1954. When ever I would be walking, he would drive by in his truck, honk the horn and wave. Sorry we won't be able to attend his visitation or funeral today.
