He will always be my Uncle Francis who still lived in Waukesha, Wisconsin and grew the most beautiful irises. I didn't know him in the early days because I wasn't born yet, and unfortunately our families didn't get to see each other very much because my parents moved to Tampa, Florida. It's been over 20 years ago, but I took my daughter, Karley to meet him and Aunt Ruthie, and Uncle Francis took us to see the family cemetery plots, and also told us many stories of the Rogers family.
I can remember as a little girl visiting Uncle Francis and Aunt Ruthie on their farm and picking rhubarb and then eating rhubarb pie and cobbler for the first time in my life. I must have been six or seven years old. BTW, I loved the rhubarb and still do.
Many prayers to the family. I am sure Uncle Francis is enjoying being back with his beloved brothers and sister and his mother. He was so young when his father died. I know my mother, Janey Lorrainey is happy to see him again and reminise.
Uncle Francis was the last of my aunts and uncles on both the Kranich and the Rogers side. He will be dearly missed. Love, Denise
