Roger Bates Huck

Roger Bates Huck, 93, passed away on March 8, 2024, in a local hospital surrounded by his loving family. Roger married the love of his life Nancy and they spent 67 wonderful years together.  He proudly served in the United States Air Force.  He began working as an operator at Hercules plant in Sulphur, La., then moved on to become the owner of Watertown Petroleum, Inc., in Watertown, New York.  He loved watching TV, keeping up with the latest on Fox News, watching the New Orleans Saints football and LSU football games.  He loved flying and being a pilot and owning his own plane brought many opportunities to fly.  Finding good deals was something he was very good at, especially when it came to cars and motorcycles, he never let a good deal get away. Buying high and selling low seemed to be his legacy 😊.  Roger loved spending time with his family and friends.  He will be greatly missed.
