Collin Hugh Roverud, age 82, of Minneapolis passed away on Monday, March 23, 2026, at Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis, MN. Collin was born September 15, 1943, to Paul and Clara (Rostad) Roverud in Spring Grove, Minnesota, one of four brothers (along with Gary, Steve and Brian). He graduated from Spring Grove High School in 1961 where he excelled in sports, lettering 14 times in four different sports. He went on to graduate from the University of Minnesota in 1965 with a degree in Sociology/Psychology.

On August 2, 1964, he married his high school sweetheart, Betty Oefstedahl at Trinity Lutheran Church in Spring Grove. They lived in Richfield, Minnesota and eventually moved to Albert Lea, Minnesota, where they lived until Betty's passing in 1992. While in Albert Lea, Collin worked at Four Seasons Travel and worked many years teaching future travel agents at what is now Riverland Community College. He was a man of purpose and continued to work throughout his life. Collin was also a fan of sports and followed many teams, especially any played by his children or grandchildren.

On August 17, 1996, Collin married the next love of his life, Barbara (Holdgrafer) Weis. They lived in Albert Lea until they moved to the Twin Cities and have thoroughly enjoyed their life together there. Collin loved all sports, biking, gardening, his faith, and his family.
