Doris Rogers (Gregg)

Doris Gregg Rogers, 80, passed away at Baptist Nursing Home in Calhoun City. Born July 9, 1940, in Calhoun County, she was the daughter of the late Guy Gregg and the late Jessie Lucius Gregg. Doris was a 1958 graduate of Derma High School, and was a member of Grace Southern Baptist Church. She was retired after working many years as a Sales Clerk for Stubbs Department Store in Calhoun City. On November 7, 1959, she married the love of her life, Gene Rogers, and they spent over 30 wonderful years together until his passing in 1990.
Doris was the rock of the family. She was a caregiver for the whole family, and was always there when someone was in need. Her family lovingly jokes that it was because she loved to be bossy and tell them all what to do. Deep down, she was a kind, soft-hearted, sweet lady. There was also no greater bond than the one between Doris and her sisters. They could usually be found arguing about anything and everything, but there was nothing that could ever come between them. She had a huge heart, and they all knew it. God has now called her home. She has been reunited with her beloved husband Gene, and they are rejoicing together in their Heavenly home.
