This information is from the obituary published in the Charles City Press:

Roger D. Ott, 47, died September 6, 1992, at Methodist Hospital, Rochester, Minnesota, of cancer.

Roger Ott was born September 19, 1944, in Alameda, California, the son of Dale and Doris Boggess Ott.  He married Ann Kepple on November 23, 1965.  He attended Wartburg College in Waverly, and graduated from Drake University with a masters degree in business administration, then from the Drake Law School with a juris doctorate degree.  He practiced law in Charles City for twenty-five years and served as the city attorney for all the cities in Floyd County.

As the CCHS Class of 1962 prepares to celebrate our 60th anniversary high school reunion, we want to acknowledge and express our gratitude for the countless hours of time and effort that Roger expended in preparing our prior class reunions.  His devotion to his class and classmates is deeply appreciated, and he will be missed and fondly remembered as we gather this year.
