Obituary: Beulah M. Rogers, 91

Beulah M. Rogers passed away peacefully in her sleep at Our House in Whitewater on February 22, 2023.

Beulah was born on November 11th, 1931 in Shullsburg, WI to Raymond and Gladys Alexander.  When the family relocated Savanna IL, Beulah met her future husband Ralph (“Trigger”) Rogers.  They were married on February 12, 1949 and relocated to the Whitewater area soon after.

Beulah worked at several locations, retiring after 25 years from UW-Whitewater Esker Hall at age 78.  Besides raising their six children, Ralph, Beulah and extended family made many wonderful memories at their second home away from home Up North near the Lake Tomahawk area.

The loves of Beulah’s life were her grandchildren….and shopping.  She actively attended and supported each of their extracurricular activities while endlessly spoiling them with her shopping sprees.

Beulah was preceded in death by her husband Ralph, her son Gary, granddaughter Stacie and grandson Justin.

Beulah is survived by her daughter Jean Vining (Rich Ott), sons Les (Sandy), Russell (Mary) , Rick (Jackie) and Ken (Lynne).  She is further survived by grandchildren Vikki (Sam) Nielsen, Ron (Jessica) Vining, Dan (Nani) Rogers, Derek (Angela) Rogers, Jeremy (Kristen) Rogers, Ryan Rogers, Marissa (Greg) Rogers, Brandi (Brandt) Hemsath, Aimee Rogers, Ben (BobbyJo) Rogers, Lindsey (Tony) Pennuto, Josh (Savanna) Rogers; 17 great-grandchildren and 2 great-great-grandchildren with the 3rddue in June.

The family would like to extend their sincere thanks to Kendra, Sarah, Gretchen and staff at Rainbow Hospice in addition to all of the staff at Our House for giving Beulah and her family such kind and compassionate care.

Per Beulah’s wishes, private family services will be held.
