He was a brave fighter until the end, never complaining at any time. He
demonstrated unimaginable strength during his 3 year battle with esophageal
cancer. Roger definitely earned his big broad angel wings. The family would
like to thank all of the friends and loved ones that have lent a helping hand and
provided support throughout this journey. He’ll have a cold beer and witty
remark waiting for us all next time we see him.

The Funeral Service will be held on Wednesday, November 13, 2024 at 11:00 a.m. at St. Michael’s Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Lepine, SK with The Very Rev. Archpriest Patrick Powalinsky officiating. Interment will follow at St. Michael’s Ukrainian Orthodox Cemetery. Donations in memory of Roger may be directed to St. Paul’s Hospital Palliative Care. Roger would want friends and family that are attending the funeral to wear something Roughriders or their favorite concert T-shirt. Roger would love to look down on a sea of Rider green. Funeral arrangements have been entrusted to Marc Blondeau of Kushneryk Funeral Service, Wakaw, SK, 306-233-4403.
