Dorothy "Dot" Bourg Rogers, age 100, a native and resident of Bourg, La., passed away on Thursday, November 12, 2026.
Dot is survived by her children, Jan Rogers (Rachel) and John Rogers (Lisa); her grandchildren, Henry Rogers (Kira), Danielle Rogers Staehling (Ryan), Celina Rogers (Jeremy), Lane Rogers, Clint Rogers (Amanda), and Brittany Rogers Bourque (John); her great-grandchildren, Parker, Elliott, Anabelle, Amelia, Ellis, Myles, and Harper.
Dot was preceded in passing by her husband, Francis J. Rogers; parents, Elie Bourg and Celina Blanchard Bourg; her son, Joel Rogers; her grandson, Eric Rogers; and her sisters, Elizabeth B. Rogers and Dolores B. Charpentier.
Dot was a loving daughter, wife, mother, and grandmother. She graduated from Terrebonne High School in 1944 and then went on to New Orleans Business College. While attending College, Dot worked as a live-in Nanny. She was a true servant in her community, a member of the VFW, the American Legion, St. Ann Ladies Altar Society, and the Bourg Lioness Lions Club which she received the Melvin Jones Fellow Award. Dot was an avid volunteer for St. Ann Catholic Church, from printing bulletins to volunteering for the fairs. She also sold oranges for about 40 years out of her garage and was well-known as "The Orange Lady." Dot loved Mardi Gras and never missed a parade. She also enjoyed playing bingo and going to the casino. Dot was proud to be a breast cancer survivor of 35 years. She will be fondly remembered and deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
