Mary (Kay) Rogers

Mary (Kay) Rogers, Age 81, of Rochester, NY, passed away peacefully on June 19, 2024.  She was the heart and soul of her entire family and dedicated to putting her family first.  Kay’s passions included online shopping, savoring good food, watching Food Network shows, watching movies with her daughter, reading, and indulging her sweet tooth.  Kay’s zest for life was evident in her passion for cooking, her flair for hosting, and her love of sharing meals with those she held dear.  She enjoyed a good laugh, and her fashion style was impeccable.  Kay’s love for her family, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, was limitless. Her memory will be treasured, her presence deeply missed, and her influence forever felt in the lives of those who loved her.  Her legacy lives on in the hearts of her family, who will remember her as the loving, caring, giving, strong, and one-of-a-kind person she was.

“We appreciate and cherish you so much.  Thank you for all you did for us.  You were the glue that held this family together.  We love you.”
