Roger served five years in the US Army including assignments in Korea and Vietnam, five years in the Air National Guard, and retired after 26 years in the US Coast Guard stationed in Monterey and San Francisco. He was a Lay Minister at Trinity Episcopal Cathedral, Sacramento, a member of the American Legion, Fleet Reserve Association, the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the River City Amateur Radio Communications Society, an American Radio Relay League Life Member, Sacramento Valley Assistant Section Manager, and an avid supporter of section and club activities. He was always cheerful and enjoyed making people laugh. Roger is survived by his wife Carol Milazzo, KP4MD.
