Samuel Gilmore Rogers - age 3, passed away on Sunday, September 19, 2021. Sam was the joy and light of the Rogers and Lunsford families and will be extremely missed. He opened up hearts and brought happiness to all he came across. In all things Sam did he always aimed to "Touch the Moon." It is his family's desire that you help honor Sam's life by striving to touch the moon in all you do. Sam is survived by his parents, Jeff and Sarah Rogers; grandparents, Jim and Carolyn Rogers, and Gil and Marsha Lunsford; great grandmothers Sarah Leona White and Josephine Lunsford; uncles and aunts, Jim and Lesley Rogers, Justin and Marti Anderson; cousin, Charlie Jane Anderson; and extended family and friends. A celebration of Sam's life will take place on Saturday at Rose Funeral & Cremation - Mann at 2:00 pm. The family will then receive friends following the service up until 5:00 pm. There will be a private graveside service on Friday. In lieu of flowers memorials in Sam's name may be made to either East Tennessee Children's Hospital, www.etch.com/ways-to-give/, or the Luke Hudson Neil Foundation, www.lukehudsonneil.org

I walked into Rose-Mann funeral home to inquire services for my dying 5 yr old daughter. I saw Sam's picture. I am so sorry for your loss. I know as a parent or grand-parent it is unfathomable. I know your pain. I want you to know that little Sam will be playing with my daughter Lydia in the streets of HEAVEN.

Zechariah 8:5
And the streets of the city shall be full of boys and girls playing in it's streets.

I will pray for your family.
