Roger Lee Hudson

He is survived by his devoted love one, Nancy Elliott; son Warren R. Hudson, his sister Ellie Terrell (H.R.); grandson W. Colton Hudson (Felicia) and three great grandchildren, Everleigh, Aiden and Lexi Hudson; and his nephew Shaun R. Terrell (Cindi) and Nancy’s children, Tammy Porterfield and Mark Elliott, and their families.

Roger worked with the Lynchburg Foundry for 3 1/2 years before going to B&W with 40 years of service.

Roger loved the simple things of life and was a man with a good heart. He was a big car enthusiast and all of his vehicles shined like a new penny. He was extremely organized and was a perfectionist. Roger had his way of doing everything and in discussions he would always say “I’m not trying to tell you what to do” but he would tell you his way to do it. When leaving you, he always had just one more thing to tell you before he left. Roger always took the time to provide guidance to his son Warren, as well as, put him in his place when needed.

Roger talked often about his fond childhood memories of visiting his granny Hudson in the country and about going rabbit hunting with his uncle Owen.

The family would like to thank the caring and compassionate staff at Centra Health. He attended Thomas Terrace Baptist Church.

Roger will be greatly missed by his loved ones.
