June 18, 2026

Rodger L. Lymaster, 63, of Mountain Rd., Pine Grove, passed away on Thursday, June 18, 2026, at home. He was a beloved husband, father, and pappy, affectionately known to many as "Chop."

Born on April 5, 1963, in Pottsville, he was a son of the late James L. Lymaster and Gertrude C. Motter Yorty Lymaster.

He was baptized in the Brethren faith and held those values close to his heart throughout his life.

Rodger was a man of diverse interests and a true collector at heart. From vintage tractors to collectible trucks, he found genuine joy in the hunt and the history of the things he gathered. Rodger was a skilled ‘fixer’ who could repair almost anything once he set his mind to it. Above all, Rodger loved his family fiercely. He offered unwavering love and support for those he cared about, a dependable presence you could always count on to show up the moment you needed him.

Preceding him in death were his son, Thomas J. Lymaster, and a brother, George "Butch" Yorty.

Surviving are his wife of 40 years, Sashee Kunwor Lymaster; a daughter, Sheena and husband Justin Pierce of Lancaster, two grandchildren, Parker and Jackson Pierce; three brothers, James Lymaster, Jr. of Lebanon, David Lymaster of Pine Grove, and John Yorty of Tremont; a sister, Linda Felty of Pine Grove; two aunts, Betty Deck of Manheim and Hattie Moyer of Richland, and many nieces and nephews.

Services will be held at the convenience of the family with Pastor Ronald Stump, Jr. officiating. Interment will be in the Schuylkill Church of the Brethren Cemetery, Pine Grove.
