Bishop David Zubik Statement on Joanne Rogers

With our whole community, I join in mourning the death of Joanne Rogers, a woman whose warmth and love was shared with her family and the entire Pittsburgh region. Mrs. Rogers was a wonderful servant of the Lord, committed to helping people realize God’s love through consistent good works in our communities. She had a beautiful ability to make everyone in her presence feel valued.  I was blessed to be in her company on a number of occasions.  I pray that we all can find ways to honor the legacy of Joanne and her beloved “Mr. Rogers” through showing kindness and compassion in our own neighborhoods and beyond.
