Buena Rogers Stallard, December 11, 1933 – June 16, 2025
Buena Rogers Stallard (91) of Erwin, TN, passed away peacefully on the evening of Monday June 16, 2025 at the Johnson City Medical Center. She was surrounded by family telling beautiful stories of her life and expressing their love.
Buena was the daughter of the late William and Mary Rogers. Buena lived most of her life in Erwin, TN. She was preceded in death by her loving and devoted husband of 70 years, Jack Ernest Stallard. Buena is survived by her daughters; Tressa Davis and husband, Bobby of Unicoi and Tricia Bryant and husband, Tony of Knoxville; grandson, Brent Davis and wife Tosha of Elizabethton; and two great grandchildren, Maddy and Zalen. Buena was of Baptist Faith and a member of First Baptist Church of Erwin, TN. She was an active member until failing health prevented her from doing so. She lived a few years in Jacksonville, Florida when Jack was transferred from Clinchfield Railroad in Erwin to Jacksonville. Upon retirement Jack and she moved back home to Erwin to be with family and their young grandson.
Buena loved to square dance. She and Jack traveled to dances near and far for as long as they were able. One of the last times they got to dance together was at Brent and Tosha's wedding. Dancing, as well as being outside working in her yard, and spending time with her family were her favorite pastimes.
Buena will be missed by all who knew her. Buena's devotion as a spouse, friend, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother will live on in our hearts. She was blessed with a long life and devoted husband who loved her with all his heart. May they dance together again in Heaven.
