Dan McClelland

Roger Henry Peets, 80, long-time resident of Tupper Lake, died on May 1, 2024 at CVPH Hospital in Plattsburgh, with members of his family by his side. He had been a resident of Champlain Valley Senior Community (CVSC) in Willsboro, N.Y. in recent years.

Born on May 19,1943, Roger graduated from Tupper Lake High School in 1961. His military service was in the United States Navy and he was very active in the Tupper Lake VFW. He worked at Sunmount until his retirement.

Roger married Denise Hachey on July 30, 1988. Roger and Denise were known for great fun and delicious food (especially chicken on the grill). One of the grandchildrens' favorites was grilled peanut butter and jelly sandwiches that Grampy made for them. He used to take them to and from Sunday School and sometimes they would fool him by saying they had it, but they were just getting him to take them to McDonalds for breakfast.

Roger delighted in sharing jokes he saw on the internet. He also shared a great many family photographs. Roger never wanted to leave a road untraveled. He would try to convince anyone riding with him to go on any unknown byroad. This continued when his wife passed away and lasted until he moved to CVSC. He was a quiet, easy-going person who attended dinners and parties, but never lingered. He always had to be on the go.

He was preceded in death by his wife, Denise (Hachey) Peets; his mother, Rena (Papin) Peets and his father, Henry Peets; his brother, Clarence (Pete) Peets and his sister, Barbara ((June) Charland,

He will be dearly missed by his children, David (Allyson) Peets of St. Regis Falls, NY, Maureen Foti of Tupper Lake, NY, Todd Peets of Fulton, NY and Kevin Hachey of Kenosha, WI; his sister, Nancy Wituszynski of MA; his brother, Ben Peets of MN; many grandchildren and great grandchildren; nieces and nephews.

Funeral arrangements will be handled by Frary Funeral Home. Calling Hours will be Thursday, May 16 from 3p.m. to 6p.m.. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Friday, May 17 at 1p.m. at St. Alphonsus Church in Tupper Lake followed by a gathering at the VFW. Anyone wishing to make a memorial contribution in his name might consider the Wounded Warrior Project.
