Ronald John Rogers (Gallegos Kimola), January 5, 1973 - July 13, 2012

It is with the most profound sadness that we announce the sudden devastating passing of our dear son, brother, dad, and uncle, John. He was taken from us much too soon and will be greatly missed by mom June, sister Amber, son Myk (Emma), niece “baby girl” Kendra and nephew “little buddy” Layne.

John loved all kinds of sports especially hockey and his beloved Oilers, Devils and Canucks, in that order. He was a true friend and would lend a hand to anyone. John loved his cats, but especially “Dammit.”

John had a large family including five half sisters, Rose, Doreen, Dorothy, Clair and Amelia and many cousins and relatives. He will be sorely missed by everyone. Mom will miss our daily phone calls, laundry days and “Johnish.”

Memorial services will be held on Saturday, July 21 at 1 pm at Stubberfields Funeral Home.

Loving you and remembering you always, Rest in Peace now son

Love Mom, Amber, Myk, Emma, Kendra, Layne and extended family.
