They say grief is love with no place to go.While Roger lived a full life, there was nothing that brought him more joy and meaning than doting on his wife of 47 years, Bert. He cooked the majority of meals, she sent him on errands and he was at her beck and call to do all of the "man things" she...

Not sure what to say?

We had a few memories together.

If you knew Rodger than you would know how big of a heart he had. Life was always sunny when you were around him. He had a smile that lit up a room but also a smirk that almost made you think he knew something you didn't. His hugs were legendary and genuine. His and Bert's parties were always a blast. Some of you may not know it but Rodger could dance. I am not saying he was always good, but he got out there nevertheless! If he was reading this right now, he would be laughing. I shall miss...

Roger was a loyal friend! He'd do anything for you if you were his friend. He was passionate about his wife, daughters and grandchildren I loved his infectious laughter and the fact that he and Bert were always up for an adventure. I truly will miss Bert and Roger~ Love Linda Gloe

I worked withRoger at Carlson. He was always great to work with. I have to say he was so patient with all of the young guys. When I was going through my divorce and had $300 a month to live on, he gave me that little red subaru. What a life saver! What a blessing for my little family. Later I gave it to my son. Much love and prayers to your family.

Rest in peace cousin.

I am sending my most heartfelt condolences to his lovely girls and their families at this most difficult time. Rog had texted me several times after Bert´s passing as we both had a shared grief of losing someone we dearly love. He will be missed.

I was heartbroken to read about Rog and his passing, Im sorry for your loss and pray for your healing. I worked with Rog at least 10 years at Carlson sheet metal, it was like having a father at work he took my side when no one else would and when others said I wouldn't make it in the trade Roger made sure I would. He taught me everything he knew about sheet metal and not mention saving me a couple times when I messed up. My nickname he made up for me was Wood he said its because I was dense...

Sending condolences to Jennifer and Jessica and family. I am so very sorry for your loss of your wonderful father. And to lose both parents so close together can not be left unsaid. I have a treasure trove of many fond memories with your dad and mom that I will always cherish; camping trips, a road trip to Seattle to a cat show, summer get togethers, protests at the Courthouse, and fishing with Roger when we were teenagers. They both were always there for me when needed them and I...
