Obituary of Roger Hahn We celebrate the life, love, and friendship of Roger Jean Hahn, of Newport, OR, who peacefully went home to the Lord on October 14, 2024, with his family by his side. He was born on February 22, 1956, to Lt. Jean Harold Hahn and June Vera Lillian Hahn. He grew up in Portland, Oregon, with his brother Jay and sister Julie. During his childhood, he played Little League and was a Boy Scout. Roger graduated from Benson Polytechnic High School in 1974 and on September 1, 1983, completed his apprenticeship with the Washington State Apprenticeship and Training Council, in agreement with the Journeymen Vancouver Carpenters, Millmen & Shipwrights Joint Apprenticeship Committee program. He earned a Journeymen’s Certificate from the United Brotherhood of Carpenters & Joiners of America, Local Union 1715. His career involved large-scale construction projects such as the Lone Star Aggregate and Batch Plant, Cascade Steel Rolling Mill, North Bonneville Dam, 1-205 Bridge, Hewlett Packard, Port of Vancouver Craine Elevators, and the SR 500 Interchange. In 1990, he moved to Newport, OR and became CCB licensed in 1991. Roger was the owner and operator of Yaquina Bay Construction Inc. for over 22 years. His commercial and residential construction projects included managing all phases from design to completion as a General Contractor. Roger lived to help others. He was a member of Central Coast Assembly of God Church since 1996, were he reinforced the church foundation, remodeled areas, supported various programs, and participated in church outreach activities. Roger is survived by his wife, Melissa Hahn; and stepsons, Stephen Roush and Joshua Roush. He also leaves behind his sister, Julie, and brother-in-law, Glen Mitzel; and his nephews Derek Mitzel, Adam Mitzel and Will Hahn. He was preceded in death by his parents, his brother Jay William Hahn, and stepson, Nicholas Russell Roush. Roger had lifelong friendships from childhood, with strong bonds that stood the test of time. He was an avid golfer, a faithful Dallas Cowboys fan, and traveled to Cabo San Lucas, his favorite happy place, as often as possible. His sparking blue eyes would light up a room, and he was always willing to pray for anyone in need. Roger believed the breath of life was a gift of God and he will be dearly missed by his family and friends. His family invites friends and loved ones to join them for a Celebration of Life service at 11:00 am, Saturday, November 2, at Central Coast Assembly of God in Newport, OR.
