WEST BERKSHIRE - Roger J. Brosseau, age 86, passed away on Thursday, June 20, 2019 at the University of Vermont Medical Center in Burlington.
He was born in Johnson on November 13, 1932, the son of the late Felix and Ida (Clouthier) Brosseau.
Roger grew up in Johnson, attended Johnson Elementary school and at the age of 16 enrolled at Vermont Technical College. He graduated in 1953 with an associates degree in agriculture.

In his early years, Roger was an avid skier and competed on a ski team with skis he had built himself. He also served as a Selectman for the town of Berkshire. One of Rogers greatest joys in life was spending time with his family. He looked forward to attending his grandchildrens events, going out to eat, and making trips to Canada.
