Roger Scherer, who helped build Scherer Bros. Lumber Co. from a small mill on the Mississippi River in northeast Minneapolis into a regional producer of wood and building products, died at home on Aug. 14 at age 87.

Scherer rose from laborer in the 1950s to CEO in 1978 at a company that has grown to three lumber yards and two manufacturing sites. The company, which was founded by Scherer's father and uncle, employs 300 people and boasts revenue of $225 million.
