Roger also leaves to mourn his special friends Roger and Diane Aubin. He was predeceased by his grandparents and baby sister Marie-Ange. Roger was born in Winnipeg but lived most of his life in St. Adolphe where he met Louise. He worked as a welder with his dad until he developed MS at a young age. Roger enjoyed playing baseball and bowling as well as hanging out with his friends at the St. Adolphe Park. Roger spent many years devoting his time to the MS society where he found support and comfort. He also worked closely with the Metis Federation.
