Roger Ferland Obituary

Roger Ferland

Concord, NH - Roger Ferland, 70, of Concord, NH, passed away peacefully at home on February 26, 2025. Born in Springfield, VT, on November 21, 1954, to Robert and Pauline (Parker) Ferland, Roger was a man of remarkable strength and resilience, living life with an incredible mind and an iron will.

Roger was a proud graduate of Concord High School and earned an associate degree in Exercise Physiology from Manchester Community College. He had a deep love for the outdoors, enjoying activities like hiking, fishing, kayaking, camping, and mountain biking. He also possessed a talent for woodworking and was a highly skilled craftsman, capable of creating beautiful and lasting pieces with his hands.

Roger's family was the cornerstone of his life, and he is survived by his loving wife, Donna (Mudge) Ferland, and their son, Martin Ferland of Concord. He is also survived by his siblings, Lawrence Ferland and wife Joyce of Concord, Ronald Ferland and wife Barbara of Gilmanton, and Richard Ferland and wife Michelle of NC. Roger leaves behind his steadfast aunt and uncle, George and Judy Robinson of VT, as well as several nieces and nephews. He was predeceased by his parents and his sister, Paulette Ferland of Concord.

The family would like to express their heartfelt thanks to Vanessa Vanhoogen RN and her team at Granite VNA for the expert, compassionate, and gentle care they provided during Roger's final days at home.

A gathering for family and friends will take place on Tuesday, March 4, 2025, from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM at Phaneuf Funeral Homes & Crematorium, 172 King Street, Boscawen, NH. A memorial service will follow at 12:00 PM in the funeral home chapel.

Donna, Martin and family. I am so sorry for the loss your beloved Roger. I enjoyed the many conversations we had at the Dept. of Revenue whenever I went into the office. What a funny and interesting man. He was always happy to talk about you and Marty's latest adventures. Stay strong and prayers to your family. He will always be by your side.
