Rogers, whose death was recorded in our issue of Nov. 15, was held Sunday at 2 p.m., at his late home, Rev. A. H. Lash officiating. A large delegation of the Moose lodge, of which deceased was a member, was present and attended the remains to Oakwood cemetery. Mr. Rogers was born in Woodland, Barry county, Mich., Jan. 19, 1858, and came in early life with his parents to Lowell, and the most of his life has been spent in this vicinity. He was united in marriage, March 21, 1883, to Miss Ada E. Chase of Boston township. To them were born two sons and two daughters, who with the wife, aged parents, three brothers and many relatives, survive him. Mr. Rogers was a man unassuming in his ways, a kind husband and father and a faithful and competent workman who gave the best of his energies to whatever he undertook. He will be missed in his home and in his circle of friends.
