Julian Richard Rogers III of New Bern, NC was born November 28, 2001 and died on July 22, 2018. Julian attended New Bern High School where he was a proud member of the New Bern Bears Varsity lacrosse team. Julian also played on various travel lacrosse teams. His best days were spent with his friends Jake, Michael, Mitchell, Owen, Pierson, Reilly, Thomas, and Wyatt - his teammates and buddies.
Julian was beloved and a person of deep faith. He is survived by his parents Juliet and Julian Richard Rogers Jr., his sister Kelly Rogers, his four grandparents Elizabeth and Julian Richard Rogers Sr. and June and John Boyd Sr.. Other survivors include his aunts and uncles, John Jr. and Kira Boyd, Lee and Jack Boxman, Amy and Peter Chauncey, Chris Gergle, Neill and Elise Rogers, and his cousins Beau, Caroline, Emmalee, Krysta, Philip, Lily, Luke, Sadie, Sam, and Maddie. Julian was a loving son, brother, grandson, cousin, nephew, and friend to so many.
To know Julian was to know love. Always willing to offer a hand, stand up for his loved ones and enthusiastically hug anyone in arms reach, sharing his enormous heart with this community. Despite his ability to bring joy to others, Julian was in profound pain. We hold tight our treasured memories of him.
