Roger was born on February 26, 1945 in Farmville, VA. He grew up with a huge, close-knit family that supported each other every step of the way. He enjoyed listening to Elvis music, working in his yard, being in the mountains, classic cars and most of all spending time with his loved ones. He worked in many different sales distribution areas throughout his life, including Pet Dairy, Flowers Baking Co and Gemini Inc. Roger was quick with a joke, full of wit, and always gave wise advice.
