Mark Rogers, of Kingston, passed away at home on September 30, 2021. He was born January 21, 1956, as the
youngest of 4 brothers. He was a member of the First Baptist Church of Kingston. He was musically talented,
teaching himself to play the piano and saxophone by ear. He played football for Roane Co. High School,
helping his team to win the 1973 State Championship. He graduated with the Class of 1974 and is fondly
remembered by his classmates.

the nuclear and computer tech industries. In retirement, he continued to selflessly help friends, family, and the
community in any way he could.

pastimes were spent with family and friends, building and repairing computers, watching football and Sci-Fi,
enjoying the outdoors and good music (his favorite band was The Beatles), playing pool and computer/card
games, photography, and reading.
