Rodger was one of a kind… I’m glad I got to see him last summer when I was back! I’m sure he and Paul are having some toddies and shooting some pool! He will be sorely missed!

This breaks my heart, I first met you when I was a bar tender. Everyday you stopped after work to have a cold bud. We shared many “bar” stories. Rest easy buddy! Until we meet again❤

My long time friend and “other brother” I will miss you so. Your musical heart leaves my desk drawer full of your chicken scratched notes of songs that touched your heart and now mine. Emmy Lou, Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Waylon, Alabama…..and a whole lot of blue grass. In heaven, I hear the bands are amazing. Rock on Roger!
Kim Peterson says
A person had to earn Roger’s friendship but once you did he was a great friend for life. I hope you and the boys are all together having a cold one.
Xina Niles says
So sorry for your loss
Gary Guyette says
Wow Roger, I didnt expect to read this today. It’s been a long time since you left New York State for Montana. Thank you for your friendship back then and for introducing me to you family.. they became my friends as well, especially Joanne. They gave me my first real look at country music. ( watched your fathers band rehearse Carroll County Accident). RIP brother.
Dee Bickle says
Rest on peace! I always enjoyed visiting with you!
Carol Schuetzle says
So very sorry for your loss of Roger and nice man and be will greatly missed.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
We enjoyed talking with him from time to time when we saw him and even have a beverage with him too.
He enjoy Spotted Eagle so much as he would go out watering trees and doing other things out at Spotted Eagle on his own or helping Miles City Walleye’s Unlimited Chapter.
Spotted Eagle is becoming a beautiful place for families to go to and use. Thanks to Roger lending a helping hand to make Spotted Eagle beautiful.
We even bought tickets from him for the Miles City Walleye’s Banquet a great fundraisers to help improve parts of Miles City community for fishing and family fun.
(((Biggest hugs and love to you all.)))
Rest in Peace Roger we will miss you.
Warren and Carol Schuetzle
