Honoring a Legacy: Westminster Mourns a Beloved Father and Hardworking Soul

 

The Westminster community is mourning the loss of a truly dedicated individual, Rodger Perot, who passed away on November 6, 2025. Rodger was the cornerstone of his family, a beloved father whose work ethic and devotion were an inspiration to all who knew him. He was a man who worked tirelessly, not just for his own sake, but to provide a stable, loving foundation for his four children. He instilled in them the values of integrity, dedication, and resilience—the very qualities that defined his life. His passing leaves a devastating void, one felt deeply by his four children and the many friends who cherished his presence. While the grief is immense, his children are now focused on a final, solemn duty: honoring the man he was by fulfilling his wish for a traditional funeral, a proper final tribute to the father they adored.

 

 A Father’s Final Wish: The Community’s Chance to Help

 

Rodger Perot lived a life of giving and responsibility, but his passing has left his children with the sudden and unexpected burden of final expenses. Rodger always emphasized the importance of a proper farewell, a moment of dignity and respect to mark the end of a hardworking life. Now, his four children are leaning on the kindness of the community he loved to make this final wish a reality. The financial strain of a traditional funeral can be overwhelming, especially when coupled with the profound emotional pain of losing a father. The family has courageously started a fundraiser, spearheaded by Courtney Simmons, as they navigate this impossible time. This effort is more than just fundraising; it is a collective attempt to ensure that Rodger’s memory is honored with the dignity and respect he earned through decades of hard work and selfless fatherhood. Every contribution helps lift a heavy weight from the shoulders of his grieving children.
