Funeral services were held at 2 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 25, 2025, at McKibben and Guinn Funeral Service in Grenada for Mrs. Alene Reynolds Rogers, 87, of Grenada, who died on Thursday, Feb. 20, at her residence. Burial followed in Shiloh Cemetery in Big Creek. The Rev. Chuck Provine officiated. The family received friends from noon until service time on Tuesday, Feb. 25, at McKibben and Guinn.
Mrs. Rogers was born on Oct. 22, 1937, in Big Creek, the daughter of the late Rex and the late Edna Alma Smallwood Reynolds. She worked for several years at Liberty Supermarket in Grenada and later joined the staff of the Grenada Tax Assessor/Collector’s Office where she retired. She was a member of Hebron Baptist Church and had served in numerous positions through the years including, church secretary and treasurer.
A voracious reader, Mrs. Rogers loved the written word and spent countless hours reading in her spare time. While we mourn her passing, we find comfort in knowing she held in her soul the cure to death, a relationship with Jesus Christ. This is not goodbye, but see you later.
In addition to her parents, her husband, Jimmy Lee Rogers; three sisters, Mayford Voyles, Ruby York and Juanita May, and her brother, Willie Smallwood, preceded Mrs. Rogers in death.
Survivors include, her daughter, Sherry L. Rogers of Grenada; sons, Jimmy Lee Rogers II (Rhonda) of Marshall County and Barry Rogers (Carla) of Grenada; one sister, Nancy Ruth Jones of Grenada; five grandchildren, Adrienne Estes (Matt), Kyle Rogers (Kimberly), Jessica Rogers, Brittany Carter (John) and Alex Rogers; 10 great grandchildren and one great-great grandchild.
