In Memory of
Elder Roger G. Meyer

November 26, 1935 - November 27, 2018


In the late 1950s, Roger met a young woman, Jeannette Schwandt, who graduated from Fargo Business School and gained employment at a local jeweler. And, because they hit it off very well as Roger was finishing his education, they were married on August 13, 1961.

Roger taught math classes in 3 schools before arriving at SCSU in 1966 to teach for 32 years before retiring in 1998. Those other schools were two years at Karlstad, Minnesota (grades 7 through 12); two years at Emmetsburg, Iowa (grades 10 through 12 and junior college); and one year at Fayette, Iowa (Upper Iowa university level math classes).

During time spent taking classes, teaching classes and in retirement, Roger enjoyed playing softball, duplicate bridge, golf, bowling and participating, with his wife, as vendors doing craft shows for some 12 to 15 years. On a more serious note, early in his stay in St. Cloud, he began taking time off from teaching at St. Cloud to attend religious meetings east and south of Minnesota. In 1969, Roger was baptized into Yahshua’s name. Eventually, he became an Elder and gave many talks at these meetings and wrote many articles for publication in a magazine, for which he became Editor in 1999.

Roger is survived by his wife, Jeannette, of 57 years; his sons, James Meyer and Paul Meyer; his grandchildren, Nathan Meyer, Jason Meyer, Cashea Meyer and Granthem Meyer; and special friends David and Carrie Brett.
