Roger A. Secord

January 23, 1947 - May 17, 2025

Roger A. Secord, beloved husband, stepfather, grandfather, brother, and friend, passed away peacefully on May 17, 2025, in Henderson, Nevada, at the age of 78. Born on January 23, 1947, in Sarnia, Ontario, Canada, Roger lived a life filled with love, laughter, music, and craftsmanship.

Roger is survived by his devoted wife, Barbara A. Secord, whom he married on June 22, 1996. He was a loving stepfather to Russell, Mark, Matt, Douglas, and Christina. He was a proud grandfather to 10 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren, all of whom brought him endless joy. Roger is also survived by his beloved nieces and nephews, his brother Richard Secord, his sister Darlene Boyee and brother-in-law Jim Long II.

A true outdoorsman at heart, Roger found his greatest joy in nature-fishing, camping, and taking RV and Jeep adventures. He had a green thumb and loved tending to his garden, always nurturing life wherever he went.

Roger had a deep passion for music and was a gifted piano player. He learned to play and tune pianos from his father, a craft he carried throughout his life. His music brought light and warmth into every home he entered.

Roger was also incredibly handy and loved building and creating with his own two hands. From constructing a backyard garage to building a full apartment in his game room for his mother-in-law, he found fulfillment in every project. His skills were matched only by his generosity and his ever-present smile.

He will be remembered most for his kind heart, infectious laughter, quick wit, and the way he made everyone feel welcome. Roger was a genuinely nice guy-funny, humble, and full of love.

His legacy lives on in the family he cherished, the music he played, the things he built, and the many lives he touched.

He will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
