Charles Rogers, Park Forest, IL— Charles Rogers passed away recently after a brave battle with stage four cancer. He was a Navy veteran and a proud member of the Local 281 Ironworkers. His passing has left a significant void in the hearts of those who knew him.
Charles had a distinguished career, enlisting in the United States Navy straight after high school. During his service, he received a Commendation for Performance of Duty. Upon returning home, he joined UPS, but later shifted to his long-term career as an Ironworker with Local Union Number 1, where he worked until his retirement.
Known for his love of Dusties and Blues music, Charles will be fondly remembered for his strong work ethic, dedication, and the deep love he had for his family.
His son, Charles Rogers, has set up a fundraiser to cover the funeral expenses, as the life insurance policy was unfortunately found to be invalid just days before the funeral. The goal is to raise $6,000 to ensure Charles receives the military burial he truly deserves.
Our deepest condolences go out to the Rogers family during this difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you remember Charles and the legacy he leaves behind.
