He graduated from Sauk Centre High School in 1966. Roger was drafted into the U.S. Army during the Vietnam Conflict from 1966-1968. On July 11, 1970, he married Suzanne Hagenah at St. Paul's Catholic Church in Sauk Centre. Together they raised five children. Roger drove semis for other companies until 1999 when he bought his own truck and became an owner/operator. In 2005, they formed R&S Trucking Inc. and have been with Karriers Trucking since 2009. Roger's greatest joy besides his family was driving his semi across the country.
