Roger

Adkins

Clarence Roger Adkins, 78, of Moreland, passed away peacefully at his home surrounded by his loved ones on September 26, 2026. He was born on June 29, 1948, to the late Walton and Ruth Lockhart Adkins.

Roger proudly served his country as a United States Army veteran. He was a hardworking man who enjoyed yard work and working with his hands. A true “jack-of-all-trades,” Roger had a talent for fixing, building, and doing just about anything he put his mind to.

In his free time, Roger enjoyed watching LSU football and Kentucky basketball. Above all else, though, he cherished his family. He especially loved spending time with his grandchildren and playing with them. His love, laughter, and willingness to lend a helping hand will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.

Roger is survived by his beloved wife of 34 years: Manervia Deskins Adkins; his son: Brandon (Natasha) Good of Moreland; his grandchildren: Gwendolyn Good, Hayley Good, Ashton Good, Bryson Good, and Teegan Good; his brothers: Bob (Jeri Lyn) Adkins of Hurley, Virginia, and Jim (Lana K.) Adkins of Glasgow, Kentucky; and his sister: Linda (Jim) Green of Sword Creek, Virginia.

In addition to his parents, Roger was preceded in death by his son, William Good; his grandson, Gabriel Good; and his brothers, Ricky Adkins and Tommy Joe Adkins.

Roger leaves behind a legacy of hard work, love, family, and countless memories that will be treasured by those who knew him. Though he will be deeply missed, his memory will live on in the hearts of his family and loved ones.

A celebration of life memorial service will be held at a later date.
