Roger Bianchin

On July 19, 2026, Roger Bianchin, the world's most courageous assembler and humble fisherman, decided to switch his residence from Rindge, New Hampshire to the grand beyond. Born on June 9, 1949 in Fitchburg, MA, Roger spent a lively 77 years on this planet, outliving his dear wife and making a difference in the world of medical manufacturing along the way.  When he wasn't putting together intricate medical devices, you could find him either knee-deep in a river casting his line with the precision of a surgeon, or elbow-deep in an engine, proving cars weren't just a hobby, they were a passion.

Reliable to a fault, Roger was the kind of man who could assemble the most intricate of medical devices, yet somehow get lost on the way to the American Legion. Although we can't be sure, we think this might have had something to do with the detour to St. Anthony's or a quick stop at the Eagles' meeting.  Either way, his dedication to his community, his family, and his work were evident in everything he did.  As St. Matthew said, "See that you do not despise one of these little ones, for I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in Heaven" (Matthew 18:10).  Roger embodied this verse, always putting others before himself, treating everyone with kindness and respect.

Roger is survived by his brother Peter Bianchin. He joins his parents, Dominic and Cristein Bianchin, his siblings Bobby, Betty, Elenor (Daisy), Lleane, Anthony (Tony), Dominic (Fuzzy), and Rico.

Roger's humor, courage, and humility will be remembered fondly by all who knew him. We encourage you to leave your memories of Roger and upload photos to his memorial page as a testament to a life well lived and a man well loved.
