Roger Pikul

Roger Allen Pikul Sr., September 20th 1945 – March 28th 2016. St. Croix, VI, formerly from Goshen, NY. Roger passed away on Monday, March 28th of a heart attack while visiting his beloved family for Easter. He leaves behind his college sweetheart, best friend, and right-hand girl, Angela, as well as his three sons, Roger Jr. (and wife Karen), Randy (and girlfriend Magdalena), Reid (and long-term girlfriend Katy), and his 'E' granddaughter, Erica. Roger owned and operated RAP Products for over 30 years, escaping to New Jersey in the summers and to the Caribbean every other opportunity. He and Angela fulfilled their island dream by retiring to St. Croix five years ago. Roger always took great pride in his surroundings, as shown by his and Angela's shared passion for gardening and landscaping. He was a member of the Goshen Planning Board for 24 years and President of the HSA in St. Croix and Seaside Heights. Roger will always be remembered for his boundless love, exceptional work ethic, and innate ability to get the party started. Whether building his business or an enviable tan, he always lived life to the fullest. And he will be missed by many. There will be a Memorial Mass at St. John the Evangelist R.C. Church, 71 Murray Avenue, Goshen, NY on Friday, April 1 at 11 am. (The family requests casual attire.) Interment will be private and at the convenience of the family.
