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 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.
