David ROGERS Obituary

In his 53rd year, after a brief, courageous battle with colorectal cancer. He is survived by his Mom, Ariel Rogers (Scott Cameron Smith), his sisters, Beth Cassey (Roger) and Kate McLaughlin (Jeffrey-deceased 2020) and his brother Nathan Rogers (Jan); and he leaves also to mourn him, his long-time friend and companion Pamela Taylor. He will be greatly missed by his four adoring nieces, Violet, Beatrice, Eloise and Bella-Sophia. David is also survived by many aunts and uncles and cousins who will also always remember him for his crooked grin, his brilliant guitar playing and his ready advice on all things "FOOD." Cremation has taken place. A private funeral service will be held with plans for a Family Reunion and a Celebration of Life Picnic with Music in early summer 2022. The family wishes to thank Dr. Kate Prangley for her remarkable care and support of Dave's wish to be with his family in his final days; the wonderful care of the Palliative Care Outreach Team and the ongoing work of the Juravinski Cancer Hospital.
At Dave's request, please donate to his favourite charity, below and despite the restrictions of the COVID-19 virus and its variants placed on clinics, "stand firm and get tested!"

Dave, what can I say. In the time I´ve know you working at the HG&CC you were the epitome of a valued friend, and co- worker. You became the best CHEF and everyone loved your wit and sense of humour. You and Pam were like Mutt & Jeff and complimented each other in your work and personal lives. You have left a lasting memory with all of us, one we will never forget. Heaven has welcomed with open arms the warmest and kindest human being... RIP Dave

I was fortunate to have met Dave over 16 years ago at Hamilton Golf and Country Club. Not only was he a great worker but also he was a better musician. The Apple didn´t fall far from the tree having a famous Canadian musician.
I was also very lucky to have met around the same time Pam.Those two had a friendship that will continue beyond.
I want to say Pam,-and his extended family and Friends we have lost a true angel. He will forever be a super man !

My friendship with Dave began when he became a chef here at Caroline Place Retirement Residence. Dave was congenial, accommodating, friendly, bright, always willing to go the extra mile to keep us all looked after. I vividly recall the night he, Pam, Johnny and I went to a Blue Jays baseball game together in the pouring rain...............what a fun, wet night that was. I never did have the pleasure of hearing Dave play his guitar and sing, however, I've heard it was magical. Dave, I will personally miss you and these feelings are shared by all of us who got to know you through your years here. A wonderful caring candle snuffed out in the prime of his life. My condolences to all of Dave,s family and a special hug to his long time friend and soulmate, Pam. Sincerely and with love, Ruth.
