CHARLESTOWN, NH— Roger Chester Dearborn, 85, passed away on May 27, 2025, one day shy of his 86th birthday. Born May 28, 1939 to Antoinette (Lizotte) and Roland Dearborn, he was a lifelong Claremont and Charlestown, NH, resident who spent his final years under excellent care from the staff at Sullivan County Nursing Home in Unity, NH.
Roger graduated from Stevens High School in Claremont in 1957, after which he was employed at several of the area’s major manufacturers for approximately 30 years before transitioning to the service and retail industries. He married Linda (Kenyon) on July 21, 1973, in Claremont, NH, where they resided until moving to Charlestown to enjoy retirement.
Roger particularly enjoyed outdoor activities and sports, and was an avid supporter of community organizations such as the Boy Scouts and Youth Sports that his children and grandchildren participated in. He would often volunteer to help in activities such as park clean-ups and fundraisers to support those groups. He was also a huge fan of New England sports teams, especially the New England Patriots, and never missed a game during the Patriots’ Super Bowl runs.
He was predeceased by his parents; his sister, Joyce; and sons Brian and James. Surviving members of his family include his loving wife of 51-plus years, Linda; sons Jason and Jeffrey; and grandchildren Dana, Dillon, and Kiera.
A gravesite service will be held at the Mountain View Cemetery in Claremont on June 5 at 1 PM.
Arrangements are with Stringer Funeral Homes and Crematorium, 146 Broad Street, Claremont, NH 03743. To view an online memorial or send a private message of condolence, visit www.stringerfh.com.
