Roger DeHarpart Obituary

Roger A. DeHarpart, 68, of Akron, went home to be with the Lord, February 26, 2013 surrounded by his loving family after a courageous battle with COPD.

He retired from B&W with 40 years service and was a member of Barberton Moose #759. Roger loved the outdoors. His spirit and sense of humor throughtout his illness was an inspiration to others.

Roger is survived by his children, Kimberly, Deborah and Daniel; he also leaves behind eight grandchildren, one great grandchild; three brothers and one sister. He will also be missed by his nieces, nephews, other family members and friends.

A big thank you to Sally, St. Lukes and Hospice for the loving care and support that was given to Roger during his hard fought battle with COPD.

Per his wishes, private family services were held.

Roger,

We had so many beautiful days and years together each day God gave us sick or well was truly a blessing. Your strength, compassion and love for me will forever be in my heart and I miss you terribly. The world and MY World are forever changed by your caring and concern for me and family even on the darkest of days. The friends we have made during this hard fought battle loved you for your sense of humor and ability to keep us all smiling, mourn your loss with me and are a great source of strength. All of the people that crossed your path knew and loved you. You were my rock during so many things, then I had to become yours! I tryed to handle your illness and make you as comfortable as possible while keeping MY Roger happy.

My Love Always!!!
Sally
