Helen Rogers Obituary

Helen (Kay) Rogers
Dec. 14, 1927 - Nov. 25, 2021
Resident of Sunnyvale, CA
Helen Catherine (Braddock) Rogers was born and raised in Ohio. After graduating college, she married Rene M. Rogers on May 31, 1952 and began her career as a domestic engineer. She was very much the quintessential June Cleaver - consummate homemaker and entertainer. No one, including grown children and grandchildren, wanted to miss a family function.
Her steadfast and unobtrusive support of family made her a central figure in our lives. She was loving, generous, kind and very funny. How very lucky we were - she will be missed tremendously by her three children, eight grandchildren, extended family and friends.
