Paul Edward Rogers, passed away on Thursday, March 19, 2026. He was born in Clay City, KY on May 25, 1959. Paul's life was a journey filled with many exciting chapters.

He married his wife, Nam Thi Tran Rogers 44 years ago in Texas. He carried a love for the outdoors and adventure that never waned.
