A 40 year employee of Harrison Radiator, served 6 years in the National Guard, bowler, boater, amateur horticulturalist, Master of soups, chilis, & spicy pickler of whatever you could fit in a jar. A frequent West End Socialite with a select contingent, who enjoyed when he had his Attitude adjusted. Although not a particularly avid hockey fan, he could often be found running his mouth in the Penalty Box. He more than occasionally waxed philosophically upon the elements of life he found to be simply-complicated. He enjoyed tending to his yard, and especially cultivating and keeping at bay a beautiful blossoming, monster, Wistera plant that constantly strove to envelop his home. Over the years, Roger spent considerable time and minimal energy with friends in the French River region of Canada. Roger was an avid Lover of music. His second girl friend, Alexa, who perished from a table fall, is thankfully survived by his Hey Google video speaker, who he enjoyed wrestling with in his on-going affair to find, share and enjoy the songs of his life & dreams.
Friends & family should feel free to visit Saturday, Feb. 9th from 1-4pm at Prudden & Kandt Funeral Home, 242 Genesee St., Lockport. Red Solo cups @ the door.
