Roger Lilly, 66, passed away on Tuesday, September 14, 2021 at his home. He was born in Ogden, Utah to John and Naomi Lilly, where he was raised and graduated from Bonneville High School in 1972.

He started his work career at Salmons as a truck driver and eventually ended up at W.R. White Supply as a warehouse manager, where he retired after more than 30 years.

Roger married Judy Ann Thurgood on March 7, 1975. They had a beautiful daughter named RyAnn. After they divorced, he met and married Peggy Porter on April 8, 1982 in Ogden, Utah, and they had two sons, Bryan and Daren. They enjoyed 32 years of marriage before Peggy passed away on August 14, 2014.

Roger loved golfing, camping, boating at Lake Powell with his family and also enjoyed playing various sports throughout his life, golf being a favorite. He also loved vacationing with his family and friends, with LaPlata being his favorite camping spot.

Roger will be remembered for his kindness, sense of humor, generosity, and selflessness. He was stubborn at times but he was fighter and battled cancer for more than two years. He had a huge heart and was loved by so many.
