A Legacy

Bremer County Fair Board Association sadly shares the loss of one of our long-time board members.  Roger White served the youth of Bremer County throughout his whole life.  At Roger's funeral, members of his 4-H club shared wonderful memories of  life lessons learned.  Roger’s sparkle, sense of humor and his handy carpentry skills are going to be greatly missed.  His legacy, however, will live for a long, long time.

Shared below are the images and obituary from Roger’s services.
