He graduated from Manchester High School in 1968, entering the workforce soon after, where he found his calling in construction. As an electrician, Roger demonstrated a remarkable skill for detail and craftsmanship. His knowledge and expertise, coupled with an unwavering commitment to quality, made him a respected figure in the industry. In addition to his work in construction, he was also gifted in automotive body work, showing an aptitude for creativity as well as precision.\r\n\r\nThose who knew Roger would describe him as organized and a perfectionist. These traits contributed to his success but also colored his approach to life. He had a strong personality, often set in his ways, which became part of his identity. Yet, it was his great sense of humor that endeared him to friends and family alike, creating a warm environment that balanced his more serious attributes.\r\n\r\nThe loving memory of Roger Gerber will be forever cherished by his daughter, Stacy (Tim) Fox, North Manchester; sons, Christopher Gerber, Bluffton, Jason Hill, Tennessee, and Brian Hill, Lafayette; brother, Kenneth L. Gerber, Angola; and ten grandchildren. Roger was preceded in death by his parents; and brothers, Carl Gerber and Phillip Hollingsworth.\r\n\r\nAt this time, services are not planned.\r\n\r\nThe family of Roger Gerber has entrusted McKee Mortuary with care and final arrangements.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"mt-10\">To order\u00a0<a class=\"text-blue-600 hover:text-blue-400 hover:underline\" href=\"https:\/\/manage2.tukioswebsites.com\/o\/v2\/trees\/f94e4a69-efcd-4d2d-9890-30a27eb4e553\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">memorial trees<\/a>\u00a0or send flowers to the family in memory of Roger Dean Gerber, please visit our\u00a0<a class=\"text-blue-600 hover:text-blue-400 hover:underline\" href=\"https:\/\/manage2.tukioswebsites.com\/orders\/v2\/flowers\/f94e4a69-efcd-4d2d-9890-30a27eb4e553\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">flower store<\/a>.<\/div>\r\n<script  src=\"https:\/\/\/pagead\/js\/.js?client=0531879237494766\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"0531879237494766\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"2870348528\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     ( = window. || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n \r\n<script  src=\"https:\/\/\/pagead\/js\/?client=0531879237494766\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\r\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"0531879237494766\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"2870348528\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     ().push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Roger Dean Gerber, born on July 26, 1949, in North Manchester, to Kenneth Burdett and Anne (Boyd) Gerber, passed away on April 7, 2025, at Parkview Regional Medical Center in Fort Wayne.
