Roger worked for Hingiss Implement in Chilton and the Chilton Plating Company until retiring in 1993. He was a member of Good Shepherd Catholic Church, the Knights of Columbus, and the Catholic Knight, Charlestown Chapter. Roger was a quiet man who, in the summer, spent morning until night in his garden. During the winter, Roger was content cracking hickory nuts in his free time. Roger was devoted to his family and always enjoyed going to his children and grandchildren's sporting events. He was a strong man of faith who loved his church and loved being able to volunteer his time to make the church stronger.

He is further survived by nieces, nephews, other relatives, and friends. Roger was preceded in death by his parents; an infant son: Larry; a grandchild: Bradley Geiser; and 8 siblings. Funeral service will be at 11:00 AM on Saturday, November 19, 2011 at Good Shepherd Catholic Church (54 E. Main St.) in Chilton with the Rev. Bob Kollath officiating.
