Rogers Funeral Home Obituaries
This guide covers Rogers Funeral Homes in South Pittsburg and Jasper, Tennessee, whose official website is rogersfuneralhome.com.

Prepare the Name, Then Search Rogers’ Official Archive
Rogers Also Offers New-Obituary Email Notifications
Rogers Funeral Homes provides an official obituary-notification page for people who want an email when new tributes are added to the Rogers website.
The funeral home’s notification page states that the email is used for obituary alerts and may be unsubscribed later. This is different from relying on a general search-engine alert or third-party obituary notification service.
How to Search Rogers Funeral Home Obituaries
Open Rogers Funeral Homes’ official obituary listing
Start at rogersfuneralhome.com/obituaries rather than a copied obituary or generic people-search result.
Search the person’s full name
Use the official “Find a loved one” search field and enter the first and last name.
Try a broader name variation if needed
Remove a middle name or suffix and try surname only, a maiden name, former surname, nickname or alternate spelling.
Open “Visit Obituary”
The directory preview is useful for identifying a possible match, but the complete individual memorial contains the detailed service schedule and venue information.
Verify that you found the correct person
Compare life dates, hometown or community, family-approved information and other details in the memorial.
Read the service schedule carefully
Visitation, funeral, memorial and burial can be listed as separate events with separate locations.
Check the time zone and exact starting time
Individual Rogers memorials display service times with time-zone information. Use the time shown on the current memorial rather than converting from an old screenshot or message.
Review flowers, memorial gifts and guestbook tools
Follow the family’s current memorial instructions before sending flowers, making a donation or posting a public condolence.
Recheck before travel and call if anything is unclear
Reopen the live memorial shortly before leaving. Call South Pittsburg at (423) 837-7176 or Jasper at (423) 942-2682 when you need confirmation.
What a Rogers Funeral Home Memorial May Include
The contents vary by family, but individual Rogers memorials can provide much more than the short obituary-directory preview.
Service-Day Checks Before You Travel
| Event | Verify | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Visitation | Date, start/end time, South Pittsburg/Jasper/other venue and street address. | The visitation location does not automatically tell you where burial will occur. |
| Funeral service | Starting time, time zone, chapel/church and address. | The funeral can be at a Rogers chapel or an outside church. |
| Burial / graveside | Whether the event is public, cemetery name and timing. | Some memorials describe the burial as private. |
| Flowers / memorial gifts | Read the individual family’s request. | A family may request a fund, school, church or charity instead of flowers. |

Rogers Funeral Prices and Arrangement Questions
This guide does not publish estimated Rogers Funeral Home prices. Funeral and cremation charges depend on current selections, merchandise and third-party costs, so request current itemized information directly from Rogers.
Questions worth asking by phone
- What is the current price for the exact service or disposition option I am considering?
- Which items are required and which are optional?
- What does the current General Price List show?
- What is included in a package and what may be purchased separately?
- Are cemetery, obituary, death-certificate, transportation, clergy or permit costs separate?
- Which charges come from Rogers and which are outside or cash-advance charges?
The Federal Trade Commission’s Funeral Rule gives consumers important rights involving funeral price information, including the ability to ask for available price information over the telephone.
Tennessee Death Certificates After a Rogers Funeral
A Rogers obituary is not a certified Tennessee death certificate. The Tennessee Office of Vital Records maintains death certificates for deaths registered in Tennessee.
Tennessee applies additional entitlement rules when a requester is not a qualifying close family member. Beneficiaries, estate executors, legal representatives and other requesters can be asked to provide documents supporting their right to obtain the record.
Marion County Probate and Estate Next Steps
Funeral arrangements and estate administration are separate. Rogers Funeral Homes can handle funeral services, but it does not issue court authority to administer an estate.
Marion County’s official services page states that its Chancery Court handles estates and trusts, and the Clerk and Master handles the paperwork and fees associated with that court.
Useful items to gather before calling about an estate
- Certified death certificate.
- Original will, if one exists.
- Basic list of known assets.
- Basic list of known debts.
- Names and contact details for relevant heirs or beneficiaries.
- Any existing trust or beneficiary-designation documents that may affect how property passes.
Veteran Burial Benefits and Social Security After a Death
Veteran burial and memorial benefits
Eligible Veterans and qualifying family members may be entitled to VA burial, cemetery or memorial benefits. The exact benefit depends on eligibility and circumstances.
Open official VA burial and memorial benefits
After opening: check eligibility → identify whether you need cemetery burial, burial allowance, headstone/marker, burial flag or another memorial benefit → gather discharge and funeral documents → follow the current VA application instructions.
Death reporting and survivor benefits
Social Security states that funeral homes usually report deaths to SSA. Eligible spouses, divorced spouses, children or dependent parents may qualify for survivor benefits based on the deceased worker’s record.
Open SSA guidance after a death
After opening: check whether the death has been reported → review survivor eligibility → review any lump-sum death-payment rules → use SSA’s current instructions when an application is needed.
Can You Trust a Third-Party Rogers Funeral Home Obituary?
A third-party obituary site may help you discover a name, but the phrase “Rogers Funeral Home” is especially risky because several unrelated businesses use the Rogers name.
