Roger Artin Peglow was born on Easter Sunday, March 29, 1970, to Arthur and Carol (Vannurden) Peglow at the Paynesville Hospital. He was baptized and confirmed at Concordia Lutheran Church in Fairhaven. He attended Kimball Elementary and Kimball High School.
Roger was an avid fisherman and hunter. He loved fishing anytime he could sneak away with his best friend, Kelly, and deer hunting on the family farm with his brothers and sister. Roger enjoyed camping with his daughters, nieces and nephews, and teaching them how to clean fish, bait a hook and skin a deer.
Roger met the love of his life, Nicole, eight years ago. They would be married two years on August 16. They shared a love like no other. Roger and Nicole lived in Grenora, N.D., where Roger owned and operated Speedy Goat Construction. They moved back to Minnesota and he started to work for Storby Underground; he loved working for “his boys”, Nick and Nate.
He was a unique man that told you how it was, whether you liked it or not. Roger had many, many stories that were very interesting, as you never knew what was going to come out of his mouth.
Roger found peace with God through his visits with Pastor Dan. He couldn’t change his past but changed his future. He made amends and lived the rest of his time as a better man.
Roger was truly thankful for having a benefit for him. It was his final party to celebrate with all those who loved and supported him through his journey.
