Jackie was born May 12th,1932 in Kannapolis, NC, the daughter of the late Clifford and Lillian Joines. Jackie worked in the sewing mills in Kannapolis and became the wife of the late Rev. James A. “Bud” Rogers Sr. They moved to Union County in 1968 and she became well known throughout the county as the voice of gospel music with her famous 10,000 Angels version. Jackie was well known throughout the state as the Rogers family traveled singing about her Savior whom she is face to face with today. With the voice of an angel, Heaven’s choir became even sweeter with her entrance.
Among being a wonderful wife and mother, she was a First Lady for most of her adult life. She had many friends that she ministered to through her love, kindness, and generosity. She will forever be loved and remembered by those who knew her. Earth’s loss is truly Heaven’s gain.
