Carolyn Diaz Rogers went to heaven on April 13, 2025, at the Grace Davis Hall Hospice House in Ocala, FL. Carolyn was a devoted Christian who loved the Lord and her family dearly.

 Born in Dade City, FL on Dec. 17, 1940, and raised in Jacksonville, FL where she married her high school sweetheart and husband for over 64 years Robert L. (Bob) Rogers. She was preceded in death by her parents Roy and Jewel Diaz, and her sister Patricia. Carolyn is survived by her husband Bob, sister Peggy Knowles (Terry), sons Rodney Rogers (Carol) and Steven Rogers (Rebecca), daughter Julie Fendley (Tom), 8 grandchildren, 11 great grandchildren, several brother & sister in laws, nieces and nephews.

 

 Carolyn loved Christmas with all of her family, family vacations to Callaway Gardens, year-round shopping for gifts for her grandchildren and great grandchildren, spending time with her life-long friends (the “Prayer Warriors’) and attending Gator football and basketball games with her husband. She took great pride in Rogers Engineering, the company that she and Bob founded in 1978 and operated together in Ocala for over 35 years.

 

 A Celebration of Life will be held at Heirs-Baxley Funeral Home in Ocala on Friday April 18, 2025 at 3:00 p.m., with a reception to follow at the Lamplighter Legacy clubhouse at 900 S.E. 3rd Ave. Ocala, FL. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be given to Hospice of Marion County.
