It is here Roger would start his own family with the birth of his first daughter Nicole in 1969.

Roger attended the Saskatchewan Technical Institute in Moose Jaw where he studied to become an electrician before eventually moving to Calgary, Alberta where his family grew with the birth of his second daughter Laurie in 1973.
