Alan Carl Roerig

Alan Roerig, Sr. of Fennville, Michigan passed away peacefully on November 2, 2022. At his side were his loving wife of 63 years, Elizabeth "Jill" (Shanahan) and son, Christopher Roerig. Alan was born in Berwyn, Illinois in 1938.

He is survived by his sister, Caryl Levita; his children, Christopher (Monica Polancic) Roerig, Kathaleen (Sean) O'Brien, Timothy (Cynthia) Roerig and Alan (Heather) Roerig; and grandchildren, Jack (Amy), Blake (Bri), Annie (Lou Boschelli) and Evan O'Brien; Maria, Emily, Aaron and Luke Roerig; James (Rosa), Marcus and Douglas Robinson; and great-granddaughter, Sophia. He has many nieces and nephews. Alan is preceded in death by his parents, Carl and Gertrude; brother, Phillip; sister, Joan DeRose; his daughter-in-law, Linda (Putnam) Roerig; niece Phyllis Gonzales; and great-nephew, Jonathon Qualtier.

Alan was proud of his service with the 7th U.S. Army stationed in Munich, Germany, as a PFC. This well-loved man spent his working days as a truck driver and retired to spend time on his property. His favorite pastime was spending time with his family and taking care of his pond of fish and turtles. He will be missed but his stories will live on in the hearts of all who heard them. Some ears will not know what to do without his wonderous ways of sharing a tale.
