Roger Henri Charlier OBITUARY

When Cary Grant plays your father in a major Hollywood movie about WWII (“I Was A Male War Bride”), it all seems too big for a young boy to grasp. Then, in time, it becomes clear that at the end of the day he’s just your Dad and that’s how you knew him best.

Still, with decades of international accolades, scientific honors, hundreds of publications, military medals, multiple academic degrees, seven continents visited and seven languages spoken, and appointments at several universities, it’s always right there how much this man has meant not only in your own life but also in the lives of people across our globe.

Many in Chicagoland know him best from years of teaching Earth Sciences at Northeastern Illinois University (NEIU) and taking hundreds of students around our planet to protect our oceans, while giving them an international perspective about the much larger world in which we live.
