Roger Marschner has been my best friend for 51 years, and I’ve seen firsthand his dedication to family, hard work, and helping others. After years of caring for his mother and traveling between Weed and the Bay Area, Roger inherited the Marschner ranch and made it his home. He continued his cabinet making business in the barn, a structure that’s stood for over 75 years and served as his woodshop.

Recently, a severe storm with winds reaching 80 miles per hour tore through the area, destroying nearly two thirds of the barn’s roof. This left Roger with no choice but to move all his woodworking tools and equipment into storage. Without a roof, the barn is exposed to the elements, and Roger can’t work or keep his business running. The structure itself is now at risk, especially with more harsh weather on the way.

Roger has always been the first to help others, putting himself second and supporting those in need. Now, he needs our help to repair the barn and restore his woodshop. Every contribution will go directly toward rebuilding the roof and making sure Roger can get back to doing what he loves, supporting himself, and serving the community.
