Jones, age 63 who passed away on Saturday, December 29, 2018, at his home in Long Prairie. Arrangements have been entrusted to the Williams Dingmann Family Funeral Home, Stein Chapel, Long Prairie.

Roger was born on December 28, 1955 to Dwight “Dude” and Dorothy Jones (Henrikson) in Princeton, MN. He graduated from St. Francis High School in St. Francis, MN and soon after began working for Ware Manufacturing Machine Shop in New Hope, MN. Roger was a valued employee who worked as a supervisor. He retired after spending 30 years with this company. Roger married Tamara Bergmann in 2003. The couple moved to Long Prairie in 2011.
