A Celebration of Life will be held from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on July 1 at the Solt-Wagner Community Room in Central City. Roger was born on July 9, 1943, in Aurora, the first-born child of Charles and Edith (Hefty) Heinen. He joined the Navy in 1961 and studied there, completing his GED and working as an aircraft mechanic. He met Sandra Lewton while on leave and they were married upon his honorable discharge in 1964. Roger worked in various mechanic jobs in the Grand Island area. Upon the family’s move to Central City, he worked at Larson Chevrolet until he eventually started his own business, Roger’s Auto Service. He was an extremely talented technician who enjoyed mentoring others interested in the craft. His hobbies included car racing, building hotrods (including his beloved, “Crystal Blue Persuasion”), fishing, listening to his oldies music and doting on the numerous pets who kept him company. He was a witty, kind-hearted man who never met a stranger. His family was his pride and joy. Roger is survived by Sandra and their four children, Rodney of Central City, Ross and wife, Michelle (Malcolm), of Cheyenne, Wyo., Trisha and husband, David Groth, of Lincoln, and Tera and husband, Brian Leinen, of Omaha. He leaves behind his sisters, Sharon (James) Brumbaugh of Afton, Okla., and Delores (Roy) Green of Aurora, and his brothers, Ronald of Lincoln and Robert (Carol) of Grand Island. He is sadly missed and fondly remembered by his 11 grandchildren and two great-grandchildren and by many special nieces and nephews. Roger was preceded in death by his parents and grandparents.
