- Roger W. Karre, age 80, of North Tonawanda, on November 28, 2023. He was the son of Ernest and Malinda Karre, and loving husband of MaryLee Karre (nee Mulivich). Proud father of Ken (Karen DeJoe), Barry (Sheila Scott), and Paul (Jennifer) Karre. Cherished grandfather of Lauren, Emily, and Nathan. Brother of the late Richard, Lowell, and David Karre, and brother-in-law of Michael and Nancy Mulivich. Roger will also be missed by several aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, and cousins.
Roger had a big heart for the North Tonawanda Community. He was a lifelong member of Saint Mark Lutheran Church, and often attended events at the Riviera Theater, where he was able to celebrate his love for music. He enjoyed challenging crossword puzzles and watching jeopardy, spending time with friends drinking coffee at McDonald's, and playing little practical jokes on the people he loved. He was quiet, kind, and patient but also very witty. Everyone who met Roger loved him. He held steadfast in his faith until the very end, and with his last bit of energy, spoke the words “I am but a stranger here. Heaven is my home.”
Friends may call at Fretthold Funeral Home Inc, 1241 Oliver Street, corner of Ward Road, on Friday from 3:00PM – 7:00PM. A funeral service will be held at Saint Mark Lutheran Church, 1135 Oliver Street, on Saturday at 11:00AM.
