Steven D. Rogerson, Sr., 68, passed away on Wednesday, Sept. 8, 2021, at the Capitol Regional Medical Center in Tallahassee, Fla., following an extended illness. He is the son of the late Walter James and Ella Mae Thornton Rogerson. He is preceded in death by three brothers: Charles, Bud and Clifford Rogerson. Rogerson had made Live Oak his home for the past 45 years after moving from Sarasota, Fla. He enjoyed tinkering with things, woodworking, photography, metal detecting and teaching things, but the most important to him were his grandchildren; they were his pride and joy.
Rogerson is survived by his wife of 11 years, Peggy Rogerson, of Live Oak; one daughter, Heather Schmucker (John), of Sarasota; one son, Steven D. Rogerson, Jr., (Susan) of Sarasota; one step-son, William Meredith; one sister, Shirley Rogerson, of Wellborn; one brother, Joseph Rogerson, of Barnesville, Ga. and seven grandchildren.
Funeral arrangements for Rogerson were conducted on Thursday, Sept. 16, at 2 p.m. in the Daniels Funeral Home Chapel in Live Oak, with pastor Joseph Richardson officiating. Visitation with the family was held one hour prior to service time. Interment followed on Friday, Sept. 17, at Palms Memorial Park in Sarasota at 10 a.m.
