Lillian L. Rogers, age 96, passed away peacefully on April 28, 2020. She was born on July 16, 1923 in Indian Mound, TN to late Thomas and Flossie Byrd.
Lillian was always a homemaker and never learned to drive. She enjoyed taking her annual trip back home to Tennessee to visit all her family. Lillian has said in the past that if she wouldn't have met Ralph she would have never seen the cities that she did. She traveled with him when he went to different conferences with Haughton Elevators. Lillian loved to golf and did have a hole-in-one at Ottawa Park Golf Course. She also enjoyed to bowl and was on several leagues for a number of years. Lillian liked to work in her yard. She watched her grandchildren while their parents worked. Lillian liked to play cards, which she said she never won at (wrong).
Left to cherish her memory is her son, Mark (Vicki); granddaughter, Jennifer (Will); grandson, Chris (Megan); great-granddaughters, Maya and Stella. Lillian was preceded in death by her husband of 70 years, Ralph in 2015 and her 8 brothers all from Tennessee.
