Roger Kenneth Beebe, the son of Kenneth and Dorothy (Sackett) Beebe, was born on November 20, 1952 in Fairmont, Minnesota.

Growing up, Roger attended school in Fairmont, Minnesota. He graduated high school in 1972 and then went on to community college.

On July 18, 1986, Roger was united in marriage to Joan Landsteiner. Together, they raised four children: Caroline, Vincent, Annarose, and Athenna Beebe.

Roger was involved in his community as a member of the Moose Lodge, where he served as Governor for multiple years, and a member of St. Paul Lutheran Church in Schaller.

Throughout his life, Roger was always a hard worker and worked many jobs to support his family.

Roger loved RC airplanes and would often participate and fly before he was ill. Before his marriage to Joan, he raced cars at the Fairmont Raceway. Even to this day, Roger still loved watching racing. In his free time, he enjoyed listening to music and watching his favorite team, the Minnesota Vikings. He passed down his love for the Vikings to his kids, Caroline and Vincent. His appreciation for music led him and Joan to have a DJ/karaoke business. Above all, Roger loved his family and will be deeply missed by them.
