Alvin Rodgers Obituary
Of his many accomplishments, Al Rodgers was a retired Air Force Sergeant, a Life member of the Hudson Lions Club, Past District Governor of New Hampshire Lions District 44H, Past President of the New Hampshire Home Builders Association, and held a seat on the Building Board of Appeals. Al Rodgers was a very successful businessman and co-owner of Rodgers Brothers Builders. His roots were buried deep in the Catholic faith and a strong work ethic.
Family always came first with Al. His greatest wish was that his children and grandchildren would know as happy a life as he did. "I am so lucky to have had Betty in my life and so lucky to have had Phil. He was the greatest guy in the world to work with. I worked a lifetime with him, and I enjoyed every minute! Of course, finding Betty was my greatest achievement," said Al.
Alvin is survived by his loving wife Betty Ann (Morse) Rodgers, his sons and daughters-in-law, Michael and Diane Rodgers, Gary and Robin Rodgers, Keith and Alessandra Rodgers, his daughters and sons-in-law Pam and Jeff Lalmond and Linda and Robb Clemons, grandchildren Aaron Rodgers and Elise Do, Nessa and Chris Regan, Jeff and Kathleen Rodgers, Kate and Bob Dufour, Rose, Lily, Iris, and Miles Clemons, Emily and Bridget Lalmond, and great-grandchildren Lyla, Adria, Stella, and Zoe.
This was a man impressed by kindness, integrity, humility, and generosity, not by money, degrees, and titles. The world lost a great one in Alvin Henry Rodgers.
Calling hours will be held at the FARWELL FUNERAL HOME, 18 Lock Street, Nashua, NH, on Monday, February 20th from 4:00 to 7:00 pm.

Sadly, I did not know Al for very long. During that short time he shared with me some of his greatest accomplishments throughout his career. I could see he was proud of his life's work and rightfully so.
However, it was clear that he was most proud of his family. His face lit up when he pointed out the picture of him and his lovely wife, Betty sitting among all their children and grandchildren, which is displayed front and center as you enter their home. What a beautiful family it is.
To Betty and family I give you my deepest sympathies for your loss. To AL, I want to say thank you for the chance to have known you for even a brief time. Thank you for your service and all you did for the community. May you rest in peace.
