Charles Joe Rogers 1935 – 2025 Charles Joe Rogers passed away in Nashville, Tennessee, on September 20, 2025, proud to have reached the age of 90. A Celebration of Life Memorial Service will be held on Sunday, October 12, 2025, at 1:00 PM at Daves-Culbertson Funeral Home in Tullahoma, Tennessee. In lieu of flowers, the family has asked that donations be made in his name to uspainfoundation.org/donate. Born and raised in Lois, Tennessee, Charles grew up working alongside his family on their farm, learning the values of hard work and perseverance, and developing a love of music. After graduating from Tennessee Tech, he served his country as a Private in the Army and then began a career with Chrysler Financial. Shortly after starting his career, Charles married and began a family. The Rogers family later moved to Michigan and then embarked on an unforgettable chapter abroad in Saudi Arabia, where Charles embraced a life full of unique experiences and cultural explorations. His time overseas left him with stories that he would later love to share. Upon returning to the U.S., Charles continued his career in Human Resources, with a second stint in Saudi Arabia. Charles was preceded in death by his parents, Glendon and Georgia (Moorehead) Rogers, and his sisters, Dorothy Jean Rogers and Nancy (Rogers) George, and his wife Elaine Blevins Rogers. He is survived by his children: Michael (Karen) Rogers of Oxford, GA; Julie (Dale) Wilson of Eaton, CO; and Janelle (Karl) Dufer of Lake Zurich, IL, along with their mother, Doris Haskins Rogers; his brother Jerry (Brenda) Rogers of Tullahoma. (Brenda) Rogers of Tullahoma, TN; his stepson Bill (Margaret) Vaughan of Archer Lodge, NC; eight grandchildren: Taylor Wilson, Wade Wilson, Yu-Mei Rogers, Emma Dufer, William Dufer, Audrey Vaughan, Iain Vaughan, and Tabitha Vaughan; and three great-grandchildren: Macie Wilson, Collin Wilson, and Cale Wilson. In his later years, Charles found immense joy in storytelling, spending time with close friends, attending tailgate parties, and even a brief moment as a "Movie Star." Above all, he cherished his family-never missing an opportunity to express how proud he was of each one of them. His unwavering support and wisdom made him a strong and loving role model, whose legacy will live on in the hearts of all who knew him. Charles Joe Rogers will be deeply missed, fondly remembered, and forever loved. Online condolences may be made at www.davesculbertsonfuneralhome.com. Daves-Culbertson Funeral Home is honored to serve the family of Charles Rogers.

September 26, 2025

Mr. Charles came by my office and talked on several occaisons and he talked about helping move the Moore County cabin to camp Woodley. He said he didn't have a drivers license but hauled parts of it up there. The camp is still used by Moore County each year for over 70 years now. Me being a Moorehead he felt like I was part of his Mothers family. He will be missed because he experienced a lot in life. My sincere condolences to the family.
