The family would like to express their deep gratitude to the staff of The Springs Assisted Living and McCall Hospice House for the care they both provided.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials be made to Messiah Lutheran Church in Mauldin.
Dear Rodgerson Family: My deepest sympathy for the family and friends of Wanda. We will never get used to losing our loved ones in death because as Ecclesiastes 3:11 says, “We were created with everlasting life in view.” But may you find comfort in knowing that Almighty God has promised that soon he will swallow up death forever along with the pain that it brings. (Isaiah 25:8) God has also promised that he will return Wanda to you as it says at John 5:28,29. You can also learn more about what happens when a loved one dies at JW.org.
Sincerely,
Susan
