He stayed working with the railroad, transferring to Atlanta in 1974, until he retired in 2000. Roger enjoyed the outdoors and could always be found just by listening for him whistling. He loved sharing vegetables from his summer and fall garden with friends and neighbors, working in his yard, woodworking, shopping for antiques, and fixing anything that was not working properly.
