Rogers Bailey (Chris), her grandchildren, Lindsey Rogers Smith (Jeff), Jennifer Rogers Cowley,
and Marcie Rogers Morris (Justin), John Rogers Bailey, and Walton James Bailey as well as

Mrs. Rogers was born on November 1, 1932 to Bascom and Eula Mae Hall and was a
1950 graduate of Gordo High School. She went on to marry Armon Rogers and they welcomed
two children, David Armon Rogers who preceded her in death, and Emily Delane Rogers Bailey.

beloved Bridge, Dominoes, and other card games with her friends at The University Club. She
also enjoyed being the cashier at Miss Melissa’s Cafe in downtown Moundville. She was an
active member of Moundville Baptist Church where she sang in the choir for many years.
Mattie’s family was the focus and joy of her life. She was a devoted wife, adoring mother
and a beloved grandmother and great-grandmother. She filled her days caring for her loved
ones. It was very rare for her to miss any activity they were involved in. She cheered from the
stands as she watched them twirl, dance, cheer and play football and baseball. She hosted
every holiday, but made Christmas Eve especially magical for all the children in her life.
Mattie truly had a zest for life and lived it to the fullest each day. She was loved by so many and
will be missed by everyone who had the pleasure of knowing her.

Pallbearers will be John Bailey, Walt Bailey, Chris Bailey, Fred Johnson, Torrey Johnson, Justin Morris, Jeff Smith and Anderson Smith.
