In Loving Memory of Roger John Collins (April 15, 1965 - January 30, 2024)

With heavy hearts, we announce the sudden passing of Roger John Collins. A pillar of strength in our lives. Roger, aged 58, was a beloved grandfather, father, brother, brother-in-law, uncle, and friend. He has left an unfillable void in this world.

Born to Ernest and Bernice Collins, Roger was predeceased by his father (Ernest Collins) and grandparents.

Roger will be fondly remembered for his fierce love and loyalty for family and the close friends he held dear. He was known for his calm, comforting demeanor, unparalleled generosity, and incomparable work ethic.
