Roger W. Brousseau

He graduated from Escanaba High School and joined the United States Army, proudly serving his flag and country during the height of the Cold War and the early days of Vietnam.

Roger was honorably discharged in 1965, and he began a hardworking career in heavy construction, working throughout Wisconsin and Northern Illinois. He also worked in commercial painting, for a company burying natural gas lines, and a furniture company before his retirement in 2002.
