Roger McMahon Obituary - Visitation & Funeral Information

Roger L. McMahon passed away peacefully in his home with his family after a brief battle with cancer on Saturday, October 6, 2018. He was born in Pateros, WA to Joe McMahon and Betty Irwin McMahon on September 7, 1941. After moving to Leavenworth as a young man, Roger started working for the forest service where he continued his love for hiking and hunting. He was known as the Legend and King of the Icicle in Leavenworth. He built Der Sportsman and Kristall’s Restaurant and Lounge, was also highly involved in orchard and property development throughout Leavenworth, Wenatchee, and Entiat. Roger and Stephanie bonded through the love of horses then married and were blessed with two boys, Trevor and Austin. Roger was not just a father figure to his family, but to many through his inspiration and support. He selflessly dedicated his life to encourage, protect, and provide to his family and those he loved. He supported and motivated his wife in her passion for breeding and showing Arabian horses, which ultimately introduced them to many beautiful and lifelong friendships. Roger passed on the love of the outdoors to his sons, which provided for incredible memories. For those who knew Roger, they would agree that he was one of the few strong people who it seems cannot possibly be stopped, brought down, or defeated. Only the passing of time and the belief in our future in heaven will soften the blow of such a profound loss. Roger is survived by his wife, Stephanie, youngest son, Austin, eldest son and daughter-in-law, Trevor and Paige, mother, Betty, and brothers, Dennis and Jack. He is preceded in death by his father, Joe and brother, Terry. A celebration of Roger’s life will be held Tuesday, October 23, 2018 at Kristall’s Restaurant and Lounge (280 US-2, Leavenworth, WA 98826) from 4-7 PM. Donations may be made in memory of Roger to Confluence Health Oncology Support via Jones and Jones Funeral Home. John 16:33 “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble, but take heart! I have overcome the world.”
