Bio

Roger Lee Hale Born:1948 - Died:2010 Roger Lee Hale, born on Aug. 18, 1948, in Bakersfield, to Clive (Al) and Clara Hale, lost his long and courageous battle with cancer on April 12, 2010. Roger was preceded in death by his wife, Debi, and his father, Clive (Al) Hale. He is survived by his children, Brian Hale (wife Dorothy), Lisa Donovan, Angela Cereoli, Jera Hale and sister- in- law, Mindy (Husband Fred), Alisha Bryant (niece); grandchildren, Jennifer, Justin, Alexandria, Hunter, Ronnie, Kaylee, Amber, Dylon and Marisa; numerous nieces, nephews, family, friends and many others including his best friend through life and constant companion through the end, Gary Jones . Roger was a an avid pool player. He and his late wife Debi played for many leagues and won many trophies. He seemed to have a penchant for winning trophies as he won many for various activities including drag racing, arm wrestling, and his most recent passion, car shows, where he was proud to show off his custom 55 Chevy Bel-Air that he built with his own talented hands from the ground up. Roger also enjoyed spending his time with his friends at the local hangouts. He was happy when he was able to ride his Harley on the open road with his friends. Camping was a favorite pastime with his family and that is a tradition sure to be carried on by his loved ones. Roger supported his family since he was a young boy in Texas helping his mother raise his five sisters. He then moved to California when he was 18 to start a new life and family of his own, where he then started his company, California Concrete, which he owned and operated til his death. Roger was a member of The Fraternal Order of the Eagles and spent his last years there enjoying the company of his Eagles brothers and sisters. Roger was a loving husband, father, grandfather, and was soon to be a first time great-grandfather, uncle, brother, and friend to countless people. He will absolutely be missed by all who knew him. His last wish was to have a celebration of life, in lieu of funeral services, which will be held at 1 p.m. on Thursday, April 15, at The Fraternal Order of the Eagles, Oxnard. Those of you who would like to join us on a memorial bike run to his celebration, we will be meeting at the Lamplighter Inn, Camarillo, at 11 a.m. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions/donations may be made to the Eagles.
