• Notes

  He was in the US Army 15 Feb 1952. His middle name is his Mother's maiden name. One of his jobs was driving a milk truck. He had an early delivery route along a local road where he seemed to always meet a certain other resident of West Frankfort. They started doing a 'chicken' routine, both switching lanes at the same time. One day Roger took vacation and was not driving, and when the other driver switched lanes, and the substitute driver did not, and they almost had a head on collision. Roger later started working for 'Old Ben' coal mine and worked up to being in charge of the lift. He injured his shoulder in an accident, and then developed a severe case of vasculitis from which he almost died. His second wife, Phyllis, was a good nurse to help his recover from this illness..
