James Michael Rogers

November 21, 1984 – May 23, 2021

James Michael Rogers, 36, of Friendship, Maryland, passed away on Sunday, May 23, 2021.  Born on November 21, 1984 in Silver Spring, Maryland to Jim Rogers and Theresa Rogers, graduated in 2003 from Southern Senior High School in Harwood, Maryland.  James was a loving son, brother, nephew, cousin, and friend to many.  

After graduating from high school, James completed his accreditations and multiple certifications and became a well-rounded Auto Mechanic and also became licensed to operate Heavy-Duty Wreckers. James a few years later enlisted with the United States Coast Guard. His most current occupation was Lock and Safe Locksmithing. Many people will remember James for his smile, his charming and fun personality, and high level of intellect.

James is survived by his loving parents James (Jim) Rogers and Theresa Rogers of Friendship, Maryland; sister Jenny Marie Rogers Giordano of Odenton, Maryland, numerous aunts, uncles, cousins and countless friends.

The family will be accepting flowers and they may be delivered to the funeral home.

    With a heavy heart I will truly miss my nephew. James was a character. He always like to play practical jokes. He had those beautiful blue eyes. Very loving and caring man I will truly miss you. We all will truly miss you. You will now be going to heaven. When your grandparents cousins aunts and uncles are the Lord will take care of you. Love you forever James. Love your aunt Adeline your cousin Eric your Uncle Jim.
