Kenneth Wayne Rodgers

Kenneth Wayne Rodgers left this world Saturday, February 17, 2024 due to health complications. He was very devoted to his family. Kenneth shared a close relationship with his granddaughter October. She chose to say this about her grandfather.

"My grandpa was a very good man, and I love him very much. My favorite memory of him that comes to mind that made me look up to him even more than I did was one day I was riding my bike up and down the gravel driveway, and I ended up falling and hurting my knees. I sat on the porch while grandpa went in to gather what he needed to fix me up. He cleaned my knees and put on Band-Aids and told me it is okay to fall down but what counts is that you get up and fix yourself up and try again, just maybe not today those knees look bad. We laughed and that day I looked up to him even more than I already did".

He is survived by his mother, Doris Ann Rodgers; daughter, Misty Olson; and granddaughter, October Olson. Also many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends.

He is preceded by his father, Jimmie Rodgers, and two sets of grandparents, I.T. And Essie Rodgers, and Odelle and Jimmie Mae Steptoe.

He will be missed by many as he was loved by many.
