Roger Stephen Weston
April 25, 1952 – December 28, 2025

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Roger Stephen Weston, at the age of 73. Roger passed away at the Mad River ER. He was born in Auburn, California, to parents Noel and Jimmie Weston and spent his life in San Leandro and Humboldt. He graduated from Arroyo High school, class of 1970. 

In his twenties, Roger demonstrated a strong work ethic, hired with De La Valle working on large equipment. This is where he met his long time friend Jim Brown. 

Roger then proudly worked for the city of San Leandro for over 30 years, as a water pollution control supervisor. When working with the city, he worked in a variety of roles, as a mechanic, electrician and pump specialist. This is where he retired from at the age of 58.

He loved music, good conversation, and shared countless laughs with family and friends. Roger had many instruments that he loved playing, and found joy listening to music at local venues. His art is where he found peace, completing many works of art in his spare time. He was an outdoor lover, which included taking photos of nature, walking around the marsh, fishing, as well deep sea fishing. 

Roger was known for his compassion and generosity. He would always give the shirt off his back if someone needed it. That is the kind of person Roger was. He kept various crystals in his pockets, and would give them out to people that needed them.

Roger was preceded in death by his parents, Noel and Jimmie Weston, and his two older brothers Larry and Phillip Weston. He is survived by his daughter Kelly Real (husband Saul); son Joel Weston; grandchild Nicholas Real; his brother, Richard Weston; and sister Susan Weston.

A celebration of life will be held for those who knew Roger in Blue Lake, at Paskenta Mad River Brewing Company, on Saturday, March 28 at 1 p.m.
