Mrs. Delilah Beddingfield Rogers, 81, of Scottsboro, Alabama, passed away on January 27, 2021 in Birmingham, AL of Covid-19 complications.
She was the daughter of the late Goldyn and Carey Beddingfield. She was preceded in death by her husband, Bobby Roy Rogers and her brother, Donald Beddingfield.
She is survived by her three children and their families, son, Steve, Suzanne, and Nick Rogers of Austin, TX., daughter, Rachel Rogers and Karen Julius of San Francisco, CA., and daughter, Amy, Scott, Tyler, Will, and Reagan Humphries of Birmingham, AL. She is also survived by her sister-in-laws, Sara Beddingfield and Billie Rogers, both of Huntsville, AL as well as beloved cousins, nieces, and nephews.
Delilah and Bobby were very proud of their community and were very active in the Jaycees and Jaycettes for years helping to raise money for the local community and state. They loved Scottsboro and were season ticket holders at the Trammell Stadium and rarely missed a Wildcat football game.
Delilah was affectionally known as Miss Delilah in Scottsboro having worked at the First Baptist Church Learning Centerfor more than 30 years keeping multi-generations of children. She always worked in the nursery and loved the babies as if they were her own. Her goal was to ensure each child felt loved and secure in her care and as nurtured as they would have been by their own parents.
Delilah was immensely proud of her family and leaves behind a legacy of acceptance, faith, and the overwhelming love for family and friends. She also leaves her joyful spirit, her love of others, and her passion for Alabama sports; and all were lucky enough to know her.
Graveside ceremony will be held on Saturday, February 20, 2021 at 2:00 pm at Pinehaven Memorial Gardens. Services are limited to family and close friends. Masks and social distancing will be required to ensure a safe event.
