Obituary for Scott Roemer

SCOTT ROEMER

Scott Roemer, age 59, of Brookville, died Monday, February 14, 2022, at Reid Hospital in Richmond.  

Born January 13, 1963, in Connersville, he was the son of William S. Roemer and Shirley (Schmid) Marr. He was a graduate of Brookville High School (class of 1983). On June 10, 1988, he was united in marriage to Lisa (Shepherd) Roemer who survives him.

He worked for many years as a custodian. In his leisure time, he enjoyed Cincinnati Reds Baseball; and was a fan of country music, with Alan Jackson, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash and Lorrie Morgan being some of his favorite acts. He always loved a good meal with a cold Coca-Cola and something sweet! 

His greatest accomplishment was his daughter, Neoshia. Despite his personal limitations, he made it a priority to give her one of the greatest gifts of her life: a strong educational foundation that allowed her to excel academically and pursue her higher education and career. 

Survivors include his loving wife of more than 33 years, Lisa Roemer, his daughter, Neoshia Roemer both of Pullman, Washington; his mother and step-father, Shirley (Bill) Marr of Okeechobee, Florida, his father, William Roemer of Brookville; his siblings, Rose (Ray) Boggs of Metamora, Steve (Kim) Roemer of Brookville, Sheila (Buddy) Crank of Laurel, Don (Faith) Roemer of Blooming Grove, Gray Marr of Brookville, LeeAnne Precht of Laurel, and Sandra Boggs of Brookville. Scott also leaves behind a host of aunts, uncles, and cousins.
