Rogers Lee King Sr.

November 12, 1970 — January 19, 2023

Rogers enjoyed hosting cookouts, smoking cigars, watching the Green Bay Packers, and running his mouth with friends and family. He always told some of the most colorful stories and always had a joke to tell. Rogers' mission was to always bring a smile to all that knew him. His love for life was as big and loud as his laughter and personality which, will be truly missed but his memory will be lived on through his loved ones.
