Roger was the first born child of Paul and Frances Duberowski on

Dakota and into Montana where he met young Mary Ann. He then moved on

California where he was hired at McDonnell Douglas in Long Beach,

he couldn't forget. They were married on September 17th, 1956 in Great
Falls, Montana. They returned to California and started their family
of 3 children, June, David and Joyce. Roger continued his employment
in the aircraft industry and retired as a FAA Inspector after 37
years. After retirement, they moved to Lake Havasu, Arizona where they
became active members of Our Saviour Lutheran Church. Roger enjoyed

children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and dancing with his wife
of 64 years.
