He graduated from Punxsutawney High School in 1967 before enlisting in the United States Army, where he served in the Vietnam War.

He was a loving father to them all.  Roger was a man of many passions. He was an avid reader, with a particular fondness for westerns by Louis L’Amour. He found joy in gardening, often sharing homegrown vegetables from multiple home and community gardens with friends and family. Roger loved fishing, a hobby that brought him peace and many cherished memories. Roger enjoyed playing card games, using them as a fun and loving way to teach his children complex math and strategy. Roger always had a candy dish ready for everyone as they left his home or room. In addition to his hobbies, Roger worked as a production supervisor for many years, where he was known for his dedication and hard work. His family, spread across the states, always remained close to his heart. Roger's legacy of kindness, love, and joy will live on in the hearts of all who knew him.
