Michael (Mickey) Ryland Rogers, 63, of Youngsville, NC passed away on Sunday, March 23, 2025, at Hospice House in Raleigh, NC.

Mickey was born in Louisburg, NC on June 29, 1961, the son of the late Bob Roe and Betsy Rice Rogers.

Mickey was the youngest of 5 children and was loved beyond measure by family and friends alike. He was known for his positive outlook, his contagious laugh and his loving commitment to his family and friends.

Mickey stayed at home and never wanted to live in any other area of the world. He met many people along his journey and made lasting friends with them. Mickey loved Harley Davidson Motorcycles, fishing, hunting, collecting guns and "Mighty Joe". Mickey was adored by his nieces, nephews, great-nephews and many of his friend's children who lovingly called him "Uncle Mickey" who loved playing with them all. Most of all Mickey loved the time spent with family and friends.

Mickey was predeceased by his son, Stranger Michael Rogers; his parents, Bob and Betsy Rogers; his sister, Deborah Rogers-McKillop; and his brother, Tony Duke Rogers.

He is survived by his daughter, Stormie Boggs Rogers; sister, Donna Rogers Cash; brother, Rev. Tim Rogers (Gail); his nephews, Kristopher Warren Grissom (Amy), Joshua Troy Cash (Brigid); his nieces, Rachel Cash, Rebekah Rogers, great niece, Sydney Grissom, great-nephews, Andrew Grissom, JB Cash, and Grady Cash, as well as numerous other beloved relatives and friends.

I am both saddened and shocked to hear of Mickey´s passing. The last time we talked, he was "upbeat" and going to defeat this dreadful disease but I reckon GOD had other plans for him. He was a true Friend and I´m going to miss our talks, laughs, phone calls and visits. Rest in peace my Friend and keep "the wind at your back..."

Ah goodness, I'm so sorry for your loss. Mickey and I bonded at work over our love of motorcycles. He always had a smile on his face when talking about bikes. He will be missed.
