Roger was a 1962 graduate of Mansfield Senior High School. He was employed at Mansfield Tire until he started his career in law enforcement for Mansfield City Auxiliary Police Department. He was shot in the line of duty as a patrolman and the bullet still remains in his arm today. He later retired from the Richland County Sheriff Department. Roger could always be counted on for a good laugh and had a little ornery side. He loved to golf, camp and travel. Roger had been a member of the free and accepted masons.
Roger is survived by his daughter, Linda (Darrin) Carver; grandsons, Michael (Samantha) Shock and David (Sherri) Carver; granddaughter, Jessica (Bryan) Damron; one great-grandson on the way, Carson Carver; the mother of his daughter, Betty Rinka; his ex-wife, Cheryl Casler; and his significant other, Barb Webb. He was preceded in death by his parents.
