Roger worked several jobs over the
course of his life from contractor, farmer, working
for the State of Illinois in the Personnel
Department and nursing home administrator. He
obtained his Doctor of Jurisprudence in 1986 and was
a hearing attorney at the State Board of Education.
He was also an ordained minister and whether
pastoring at a church or living his daily life, his
mission was to spread the Gospel and bring people to
know Jesus Christ. He asked that his funeral service
not be about him but about the Gospel. He was a
servant of God in the purest sense. He will be
greatly missed by family and friends.
A private family burial will be held at Mount Joy
Cemetery in Armington. Memorials may be made in
Roger’s name to Minier Christian Church, Minier,
Samaritan’s Purse, or Ebenezer Free Lutheran Church,
Humbolt TN.
Services have been entrusted to
Fricke-Calvert-Schrader Funeral Home, Lincoln.
