Not sure what to say?

I miss my friend. I didn't get a chance to say Goodbye. I shared many important moments in my life with Rev. Rogers at Morehouse College. He was a great cook and always made you feel welcome. I was like a hardheaded son who had to make my own mistakes. I thank God we met. I miss you, Sir.

My deepest sympathy.

I am Deeply Saddened. Rev. Rogers gave LUV and Encouragement to ALL. May God continue to Bless and Comfort Janet and his family. RIP !!!!!!!!

I am so saddened by Rev. Dr. Rogers passing. I truly appreciate all of the encouragement he gave to me over the years and it is my hope and prayer that the family is surrounded by all of the love he gave others during this time. Praying for you all.

Condolences to the Rogers family.
Doc was a Godsend while I was a student at Morehouse. Dean Carter and I did not always see eye to eye but it was Rev. who always kept me encouraged to continue on. May his warm Spirit continue to live on.
In Christ,
Rev. Dr. Kevin E. Donalson Sr.

The Reverend Dr. Willie Roy Rogers, Sr. will be greatly missed and greatly remembered for many things--husband, father, godfather, pastor, preacher, mentor, supporter, counselor, community leader, neighbor, friend, and so much more. I remember him most as a giver. Deeply appreciative for the love, wisdom, advice, support, and generosity of him and his wife, Mrs. Janice Sikes-Rogers.

May the thoughts and prayers of my family bring some comfort during this time. I believe that God has a better place for Will in his Kingdom.

May he rest in peace and rise in glory. May he hear the exclamation, "Well done, my God and faithful servant."

Deep Condolences to the family of Doc. Rev. Rogers. He was a father figure to many, like myself, at Morehouse. His humor, wisdom, and love will be greatly missed.

Dr. C. Johnson
