Roger Dale Guyer, age 78, of State Road, passed away on Saturday, October 4, 2025, as the result of an automobile accident. Born in Surry County on February 25, 1947, he was the son of DG Junior Guyer and Helen Mae Holbrook Guyer.
Mr. Guyer was a dedicated member of Ebenezer United Methodist Church.

In addition to his parents, Mr. Guyer was preceded in death by his brother, Rocky Guyer; sister, Sherri Guyer; nephews, Brian Guyer and Rocky Guyer Jr.; niece, Mandy Guyer; and grandson, Korey Barber.
