Roger Lee Fox Jr., 43, of East End, Arkansas, passed away on February 27, 2026, in a tragic car accident, just five days after celebrating his birthday. He was born on February 22, 1983, in Houston, Texas, to Mayris Jean Fox and Roger Lee Fox Sr.

Roger began his professional journey as the owner of his own DJ business in Seattle, Washington. He later built a successful career in the hospitality industry, managing multiple restaurants and leaving a lasting impression on everyone he encountered.

If you knew Roger, one thing always came to mind, his smile. It could light up any room. He had a remarkable gift for making people laugh. Whether you were having a rough day or simply needed a reason to smile, Roger knew exactly how to bring joy to those around him. His larger-than-life personality often led people to say, "That man could've been a politician."

Above all else, Roger was a phenomenal father. He worked tirelessly, often holding three jobs, to provide not only what his children needed, but also to make sure they experienced the things they wanted. From his oldest son to his youngest daughter, Roger was always a coach. From the early days of East End peewee football to the long nights under the lights at Sheridan High School, he poured his heart into mentoring young athletes. He applied the same love, dedication, and life lessons he practiced as a father to his coaching. He shaped the lives of many young men, some of whom gather today in his honor. Firm yet fair, he led with both strength and compassion.

Roger is survived by the mother of his sons, Amanda Nicole Archer; his four beloved children, Kadin Nicholas, Spencer Martin, Braxton Alexander, and Adalynn Mae Fox; his two sisters, Heather Jean Fox and Crystal Lee Fox; his parents, Mayris Jean Fox and Roger Lee Fox Sr.; and his wife, KC Fox.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, William Howard Martin and Ora Patricia Martin.

Memorial service will be held on Friday, March 6, 2026, at 2:00 P.M. with visitation being held the night prior from 6:00 – 8:00 P.M. at Dial and Dudley Funeral Home in Bryant, Arkansas.
