Samuel Rogerson Obituary
WILLIAMSTON - Samuel Morris Rogerson, 91, passed away Tuesday, February 5, 2019 at Rex Hospital, Raleigh, North Carolina.
Samuel was born on July 23, 1927, to the late Gilbert and Ethel Rogerson. He attended the Bear Grass schools and enjoyed a long life in the community he loved.
He was a self-employed brick mason for many years till health concerns forced his retirement. He took great pride in the quality of his masonry and his work is still seen in Eastern North Carolina today.
He was married for seventy years to Helen Rachel Gurkin and was the father of five sons and one daughter, grandfather of six grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
He was a member of the Maple Grove Christian Church.
One yearly event Samuel looked forward to throughout his lifetime was the Rogerson Family Reunion held at the Bear Grass Yucca House. This was the joining of two sides of the Rogerson clan and that was important to all who were involved.
He was preceded in death by his son, Douglas Vann Rogerson, siblings; Mack Gilbert Rogerson, Kathleen R. Lilley, Bernice Rogerson, Alvia Rogerson, Carroll Rogerson, Amanda Faye Griffin, and John Rogerson.
He leaves which to cherish his memory his wife, Rachel; daughter, Marianna Mutachler; sons, Gilbert, Stevie, Stewart, and Sammy Rogerson; grandchildren, Nicole Toadvine (Jeff), Stephanie Manning (Seth), Ashley and Samantha Mutachler, Dylan and Jessica Rogerson; great-grandchildren, Rachel, Lauren, and Anna ClaireToadvine, and his furry friend, "Miss Kitty".
