Roger’s childhood revolved around the development of strong spiritual and moral character, church and family. In Roger’s early years his father had a farm in Great Falls and then unfortunate things happened with the farm and his dad went to work at the Anaconda company. Roger’s mother was a loving nurturing woman who stayed home. With gentle kindness, she made their home heaven on earth. Roger’s work experiences were built on his entrepreneurial spirit and strong interpersonal skills. He provided for his family by working in wholesale and retail carpet sales, selling life insurance, limited partnership and investment planning, and a water softener sales business owner. His business minded personality matched well to his wholesale jewelry business. His business took him throughout the intermountain west where he sold wholesale jewelry and made friends wherever he went. Though he was challenged with health concerns, Roger had a strong positive desire to get better. He loved life and spending time with children and grandchildren. His children would describe him as a man that led his life by example. He was able to triumph his health concerns with a quick sense of humor and positive attitude. Never once did his children hear him complain about his health problems. Roger was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served in numerous positions, with his favorite being a missionary and teaching discussions to investigators. He was an assistant to the mission president in the California South Mission. He loved teaching the gospel and being led by the Spirit to those seeking to hear the gospel message. Before and after his full-time mission he shared the gospel message with others. He was instrumental in five of his friends joining the church in Great Falls, Montana. He never lost his love of and zeal for teaching others about the gospel. He held numerous church positions including boy scouts, ward clerk, Elder’s Quorum leadership, and team teaching the primary kids with Becky. During the last few years of Roger’s life, he dedicated his time to serving in the temple. Lovingly they called their Primary class their Primary grandchildren. Roger and Becky enjoyed fixing up their home and yard together. They landscaped the yard, installed a garden, and built two cozy cabins in their back yard. Their time together working on their home and yard were cherished moments. He was an active sportsman all his life. In the 4th grade he was the fastest runner in the school, outpacing those in 5th and 6th grades. He excelled in wrestling making him undefeated in Junior High and High School. He loved golfing, traveling, and spending time with his grandchildren. Roger’s love language was time with his children and grandchildren. Being with his grandkids was the highlight of his life. He felt that he could never spend enough time with them. Roger loved music. He taught himself to play the guitar. When he and Becky were dating, he took her to some of his performances and serenaded her as he sang to the audience. He was a lead guitar player in rock bands in high school and while attending BYU. Their band performed at local high schools, Dixie College, and on television once a week while in high school. At a BYU dance he met Becky Joy Condie. He pondered and prayed if she was the one. One Sunday when Becky was holding little baby Chuck (Roger’s nephew) Roger looked at her. He received his answer… She was to be his eternal companion. He married Becky Joy Condie Bingham on June 14, 1972 in the Salt Lake City Temple. Together they added cherished children, their spouses, and grandchildren.
