James Rogers Obituary

STATESBORO, Ga. - On July 26, 2025, James Patrick Rogers watched his last sunset and exited to his heavenly home. Patrick unfortunately succumbed to the effects of a heart attack due to cardiac shock between hot and cold while working on his mother's property. Patrick's passing was able to save as many as 30 individuals, using two heart valves, his eye retinas and cornea, arm arteries, and his bones along with bone marrow.
Patrick was a walking talent, making art with his hands, music with his soul and laughter through his voice. A skilled electrician for many years, Patrick was a graduate of Bulloch Academy, Class of 1991, and attended Georgia Southern University.
Patrick leaves behind his beautiful lady pups, Thelma and Louise; his mother, Adelia Rogers; his little sister, Nikki Roessler; a nephew, Scott Roessler; and nieces Savannah and Sierra Roessler.
Patrick was greeted in heaven by his father, Casey Rogers; his grandmothers, Marion Rogers and Inez Mercer; and his grandfathers, Carson Rogers and Nathaniel Mercer.
Please join us Wednesday, July 30, at Trinity Baptist Church in Nevils, Georgia. Family visitation will begin at 10 a.m., followed by the funeral service at 11 a.m., with Pastor Joe Eason officiating.
Memorial contributions can be made to Trinity Baptist Church, Nevils, Georgia.
