Roger was always passionate about his military service and his nursing career. For the last few years, he has really enjoyed monthly luncheons with his Army buddies. He loved to read – always had several books at home, in the car and with him on vacations. He cherished all the time he spent with his grandchildren and has left them with many wonderful memories. In his spare time, he often did word searches, crossword puzzles, and watched the History Channel, Lawrence Welk, and Bob Ross.
Roger was preceded in death by his parents, Willard and Melvia Allgood, parents-in-law, Adelbert and Christine Hardin, brother DeVern, and infant daughter Janet. He is survived by Connie, his wife of 58 years, brother Larry (Pam), son Eric (Jenny), daughter Heather (Jay), grandchildren Katie, Neva, Koen, Chance, and Kalin, extended family and many friends.
Christmas 2023 will always be a treasured memory as the entire family celebrated with plenty of food, gifts, and typical "Papa Stories".
