Military honors and interment will be held in October at the Central Texas State Veterans Cemetery, in Killeen. He was bom in 1932 at Princeton, W.Va. to Fred S. and Elva Rogers. He and younger sister Arm, lived in Athens, W.Va., where his father worked wmWft MB Marine Division in . Korea, where he provided medical aid under adverse conditions, and was the hospital corpsman in charge of the operating room. He returned to civilian life in the fall of 1956, and moved back once again to Athens to complete his under graduate degree from Concord College. It was here he fell in love with Carol Goodman they were married in 1957. He graduated in 1958 with a bachelor's degree in education, with specialties in biology and social sciences. He also earned a master's degree in educational adminis tration & counseling from The University of Cincinnati, a degree from the Cincinnati College of Embalming in Ohio, as well as undertaking agent training from Naval Investigative Services, in Washington, D.C. He held several jobs early in his marriage, including junior high science teacher, funeral embalmer and am bulance driver, high school biology teacher, and special agent with the Office of Naval Intelligence. He worked for the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation for over 21 years while living in Bridgeport, W.Va. He and Carol raised their two children, David and Whitney there. He was active at Simpson Creek Baptist Church, on the dea con board for years, as well as a youth group leader. One could find Fred outdoors - backpacking, deer hunting, or gardening behind their home on Brightridge Drive. Most importantly, you could find him helping friends. In 1988, he took early retirement from the State of WV. Warmer weather and new challenges began to call, taking the family to Mocksville, where he continued to work for the NC Division of Vocational Rehabilitation for several years before retiring for good. Over the next 20 years, he and Carol were active mem bers of the First Baptist Church of Mocksville. He served with the N.C. Baptist Men's Disaster Relief Organization. He traveled across the south to help clean up after floods, tornado, and hurricanes. His mission work also took him to Alaska, Honduras, and Germany. He also worked as a historically costumed tour guide at Old Salem, a Moravi- ri an settlement in Winston-Salem. It combined his love of S history, with meeting and talking to people. Later in his life, every October, he would invite friends from all over for the apple butter making gathering - a (JO day-long event starting early in the morning from getting , the fire just right, to peeling and coring the apples, to stir- ring all day with a long wooden paddle until the color was just right, and then getting everyone into an assembly line to get all the apple butter into the canning jars. It was a H. day full of fellowship: having lunch on a fall day, enjoy- rJ ing one another's company and leaving with apple butter. ^ He made sure everyone felt welcome. He hosted over 20 gatherings in West Virginia and North Carolina. O They missed their daughter Whitney, who had married a Texan, so they bought a home there. They would travel back and forth from Texas to Mocksville, to visit their son David and Mends from there, and also to beat the Texas he^. After several years of traveling from Texas to North Carolina, the mountains of West Virginia were calling him home. They sold their homes, and Fred and Carol moved back home to Bridgeport. He bought a house on a differ ent hill this time, and they lived for five years spending time with those same friends they had made years ago. Two years ago, he realized that they finally were get ting older, and should move back to Texas to be closer to their daughter. His timing was perfect. They enjoyed a year together in their new home before he became ill. Survivors: his wife of 63.5 years, Carol J. Rogers of Georgetown, Texas; his son, David K.

VA U) Gretchen Mars Howerton 1932-8/31/2021 Gretchen Mars Howerton (1932-2021) At 89 Gretchen- aka Nana, aka Super G, embarked upon her next great adventure on August 31, 2021. Growing up in Philadelphia, Mississippi she developed her business acumen and fashion sense working at Mars Brothers - her parents' clothing store. Always an adventurer, upon completion of her undergraduate studies at Millsaps College and Stephens College she moved to New York. There she earned a graduate degree in Physical Therapy from Columbia University. Gretchen met her soon to be husband - Jim Howerton (deceased 2013) while working as a physical therapist at Baptist Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee. The young couple settled initially in Columbia, North Carolina and started a family. They shared a love for spending time with friends, family and dining out. Throughout our teenage years in Newport News, Virginia we knew we had the coolest parents in the neighborhood. Mom was always a trendsetter, both in fashion and in her approach to life. As a friend remarked, she was never without a smile, always with perfect makeup and dressed to the nines - whatever the occasion. As her daughter, I am deeply grateful for the example she set as a working woman running a solo medical practice. Before the Women's Movement brought attention to issues of equality at work and at home, Gretchen made her way through the world by expecting and if necessary, demanding she be treated as an equal. Consequently, it never occurred to me that I should accept anything less. As her son, I am deeply grateful for the example she set as a mother and a wife. She taught me what to look for in a life partner, which I was blessed to find. Equally importantly she taught me what to be as a life partner, perhaps explaining why my beautiful wife Pam has kept me these past 25 years. She helped give us both the confidence to aspire to many goals and the support to achieve them. Upon retirement in 2010 she relocated to Advance, North Carolina with her husband to be near her son and daughter-in-law Russell and Pamela Howerton, her grandchildren Zoe Howerton, Gwyneth Howerton, Amanda Herring, Jennifer Coppola, grandsons-in-law Marcus Herring, Roman Coppola, and her great-grandchildren Keats Herring, Pascale Coppola, Marcello Coppola, and Alessandro Coppola. During these years Nana enjoyed immersion into a large extended family. Late in life she got to indulge her wandering spirit with globe-trotting adventures with her daughter and son-in-law Todd and Tim; whale watching in Alaska, exploring the Sea of Cortez, stepping back in time in the Galapagos Islands, rounding Cape Horn on an epic adventure from the Chilean Fjords to Staten Island, Argentina and getting up close and personal with elephants and rhinos during a once in a lifetime journey through South Africa, Namibia, and Botswana. Super G embraced these cultures and experiences with zeal. The 'sundowners' at the end of the day's adventure were always some of her favorite moments. We celebrate her life with one last toast - as her friends from Botswana would say "Pula" (cheers) "Tsamaya sentle" (goodbye and go well). She will be greatly missed by her family and friends. A private family graveside service will be held at Four Oaks Farm on September 11, 2021. Hayworth-Miller Funeral Homes in Advance, North Carolina are handling funeral arrangements. In lieu of flowers please consider a donation to Davie Community Foundation, 107 N.
