Roger Charles Zahn

With heavy hearts, we share that Roger Charles Zahn, 83, of Lighthouse Point, Florida, was peacefully called to heaven on April 16, 2026. A devoted husband, exceptional father, and loving grandfather, he lived a life defined by strength, integrity, kindness, and a deep love of family. He especially enjoyed boating, tennis, golf, and traveling, embracing life’s simple pleasures.

Roger was born in Chicago, Illinois, and graduated from Purdue University. He married his beloved wife of 58 years, Phyllis Mohlman Zahn, on November 25, 1967, in Jackson, Michigan. Shortly thereafter, they relocated to Lighthouse Point, Florida, where he joined his father at Zahn Builders in home building, a family legacy that continues today through his sons.

Roger is survived by his wife, Phyllis Zahn; his son, Roger Zahn Jr. (Suzy), of Lighthouse Point, Florida, and their children, Kyle and Carly; his daughter, Julie Zahn Hersey (Harry), of West Palm Beach, Florida, and their daughters, Hailey and Haiden; his son, Andrew Zahn (Rita), of Fort Lauderdale, Florida; and his brother, Robert Zahn Jr., of Margate, Florida. He was preceded in death by his parents, Robert Zahn and Andree Burghart Zahn, and his sister, Sandy Zahn Zentgraf.

He will be deeply and forever missed by all who knew and loved him.
