You know, I would have been at her Homegoing Celebration had I known. I will miss our conversations and her knowledge of the Felixville community, especially Clear Creek AME Church and the history of the Rogers family there. May you all know that she will always be with us in spirit. LOVE

Loving you was the easiest job I ever had and you will be missed. Thank you for always praying for me when at times I lost my direction to pray the right prayers. I know my mom was there to welcome you and somehow the two of you will be laughing and sewing like old times. I love you always , your niece Arrietta.
