Rodger Scott Lindsay

11/21/1952 ~ 1/6/2014

Rodger Scott Lindsay, 61, passed away at his home on Monday, January 6, 2014.  He was born on November 21, 1952 in Ogden to Fredrick William and Maxine Vivian Davies Lindsay.  He was the second to the youngest of nine children.

Rodger grew up in South Ogden, attended South Ogden Schools, and graduated from Bonneville High School.

He joined the Navy in May of 1970 and served aboard the USS Independence.  He was discharged from the Navy in 1976.

Rodger worked and retired after 35 years as an aircraft sheet metal mechanic from Hill Air Force Base.

Rodger loved his family very much; so much that he did all he could for whoever asked him.  He never took life too seriously and lived the way he wanted to.  He was always joking around and spoke his mind.  He loved spending time outdoors with his boys.  He liked camping and riding four wheelers.  He always made sure everyone was invited and everyone was having fun!

Rodger is survived by his sons, Paul (Becky) Lindsay, Matt Lindsay, Marshall (Denise) Lindsay, and Scott (Carrie) Lindsay; nine grandchildren; and brothers and sisters, Diana (Ronald) Hadley, Steve (Patricia) Lindsay, Jean (Gene) Simmons, Cherie (Neil) Lish, Bonnie Randall, LoLa (Max) Buhrley, and Val (Nichole) Lindsay.

He was preceded in death by his parents, brother, Bradford Clyde Lindsay, and brother-in-law, Harold Trimble.
