Michael Patrick Rogers, 52, passed away in his home on September 29, 2024. Born on June 7,

1972, on the Southwest side of Chicago, Michael was the beloved middle child of Mike and

Alice Rogers.

Michael grew up alongside his older sister, Paula, and his younger sister, Tracy. He was a proud

and loving uncle to his nephews Philip and Brandon Kelly, Khol Rogers, and Yianni and Alice

Kattos. Michael is survived by his sisters, nephews, niece, aunts, uncles, many cousins, his

brothers-in-law Glenn Kelly and George Kattos, and childhood friends who stood by him to the

end, all of whom he cherished deeply.

Michael graduated from Reavis High School in 1990 and went on to attend trade school, where

he honed his skills to become a very talented and skilled carpenter. His craftsmanship and

dedication to his trade were admired by all who knew him.

Michael's family was his greatest love. He was dedicated to caring for his mother and father,

always putting everyone's needs above his own. His kindness extended to everyone he met, and

his generosity and selflessness were hallmarks of his character.

Michael had a great love for baking, a passion he shared with his mother. He was known for

never being able to refuse an apple cider donut. His sense of humor and his love for the Chicago

White Sox brought joy to those around him, and his funny anecdotes and light-hearted spirit will

be deeply missed.

Michael's family extends their heartfelt thanks to all who have offered support and condolences

during this difficult time.
