Roger Ewing was a wonderful soul. When he worked at the Powers Funeral Home in Pocahontas and Rolfe... he took great care of the public!..... my dad Max Powers, operated the Funeral Homes and work with Roger..... Roger interacted with all 11 of us kids..... that were part of the Powers family. Roger always seemed to be positive, at times, he would have lunch with us over the noon hour... in which he´d share stories and badger us. Very fond memories from all of us Powers´...... we send our love and condolences to the family.... -Joe Powers
