In memory of Reverend Jerome Rogers, he was integral in helping me get back on my feet after being homeless. I was also privileged to assist with his life long goal of assisting the local community with drug and alcohol rehabilitation, children's reading programs, as well as weekend outreach, including feedings, distribution of hygiene kits, shoes, coats, and clothing. As a servant of God, he did everything within his abilities to do good for others. May God rest his soul as he is his good and faithful servant.
