Read MoreWow, Just seeing this now 3 years after his passing. What a stellar teacher he was, and our neighbor just up the street. I realized later in life just how young many of my educators were. I am class of '78, making him just 38 at the time. I come to this as a Certified Genealogist, and with a love of History, that he made a joy to learn. God bless all who knew him.

With sincere sympathy to the Rogers family on your sad loss of Bill. I was a WHS classmate of his late sister Jeanne & got to know Bill better when he was a rehab patient @ Oakland Grove the same time as my late husband Jerry. They liked to talk about sports and play the card game pitch.
Bill also was my son Richards history teacher @ WHS 84.

Bill, you always scare the bejesus out of me in Ancient History class. It was only in later years I truly got to know you as an adult & realized what a big heart lied inside of your giant Stature . May you Rest In Peace as you are reunited with your wife, son & those who have gone before you. You will be missed ❤
