Jimmie Rogers, known affectionately to friends and family as Jimmie, passed away at the age of 86, on July 4th, 2025, in Oxford, Georgia. Born on August 10th, 1938, in the small town of Oxford, Georgia, he was the beloved son of the late Eunice and Ollie Rogers. Jimmie's life was characterized by his unwavering dedication to his family, his immense knowledge on a plethora of topics, and his passion for old cars.
Jimmie's life was rich in love and companionship, as he shared an incredible 59 years of marriage with his cherished wife, Linda Rogers. This union was blessed with two children: a daughter, Tracey Kuhn, and a son, Greg Rogers. He loved and was loved as the proud grandfather to Ethan Rogers, Brandon and Charity Malcom, Zach Kuhn, Zoie Kuhn, and the late Brittany Malcom. His legacy of kindness and compassion continued to shine through his great-grandchildren, Teagan and Casey Malcom, who will carry forward his memory.
His friends and family will remember Jimmie as a friendly and kind soul, always ready to offer a helping hand or a listening ear. He was endowed with a commendable gift for handywork and a knack for fixing anything that needed repair. Jimmie's passion for old cars was more than a hobby; it was a testament to his appreciation for the intricacies of design and engineering—a reflection of the careful attention to detail that he applied to all areas of his life.
Those who were privileged to meet Jimmie were enamored by his wealth of knowledge and the warmth with which he shared it. He could effortlessly shift from discussing the nuances of a vintage automobile to sharing valuable life advice, all with his signature ease and simplicity. His presence in the family was a cornerstone that provided a sense of continuity and strength, and while his absence will be profoundly felt, the memories shared will endure as a tribute to a life well-lived.
Jimmie's passing is a somber occasion, yet his legacy is one of joy and generosity. The impact he had on those around him will be cherished deeply, and his spirit will continue to guide and inspire even in his absence. As we bid farewell to Jimmie, we celebrate a life that exemplified the best of us: friendly, handy, kind, and forever invested in the well-being of his beloved family. Jimmie Rogers will be greatly missed, but his memory will forever be etched in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
