Sorry to hear that. I have several of his old tractor books detailing his experiences with his old Allis WC's. Always a great read. Condolences to his wife and daughter.

If I'm not mistaken, he was a featured speaker at one of the GOTO's in NE that I attended many years ago. He really enjoyed working on his WC's.

I would call Roger a "character"! I think that fits him well! I'm from NE and have seen him around!

Sorry to hear that of Roger Welsch. He did have a way with his stories. Got three of them, 'Old tractors and the men who loved them', 'Busted tractors and rusty knuckles', and 'Love, Sex and Tractors'. Rest in peace Roger.
