Moe, Roger Dean

SAUK PRAIRIE - Roger Dean Moe was born in Superior, Wis., on March 31, 1937, to Christine (Kennedy) Moe and Oscar Moe. He started dating the love of his life, Dorothy Nollet, at the end of his senior year in high school and has been her devoted husband since July 19, 1958. Roger started working at a very young age and put himself through college at UW-Superior by working for the Burlington Northern Railroad.

Roger started his lengthy teaching career at Superior East High School in 1959. He moved his family to Prairie du Sac when he started teaching at Sauk Prairie High School in 1964, where he taught until he retired in 1999. In addition to teaching, Roger was involved in coaching football, basketball and baseball.

Roger's family was his pride and priority, and he instilled in them, through his examples, a strong work ethic, a love for sports and the need to be kind and giving. He also shared with them some of his greatest passions such as traveling, investing in the stock market, enjoying life, celebrating and enjoying a cold beer.
