Brother Rodgers Son, Wayman, was our Pastor. Because of the loss of his Dad, he loved and supported all Law Enforcement Officers. It shows the bravery and dedication Fletcher Rodgers exhibited in serving the citizens of McCurtain County.

I am the great-grandson of Fletcher Rodgers. Growing up hearing the story of his death made me think of him as some sort of John Wayne action hero. As I am now much older it is the story of his life that makes me think of him as a hero. He wore many hats and served in many roles to a lot of people. I am a testiment that his legacy lives on. I take pride in the fact i am part Rodgers. May his life be an example to all who read this; for after you are gone, it is the way you lived your life that counts. Live yours to the fullest in honor of all those who have given theirs as a service to you.
I take joy knowing you are resting with our King!
I am honored to be your great-grandson
Until that day we meet,

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 77th anniversary of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer murdered in the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.
Time never diminishes respect, not even 77 years. How nice that your family honors you to this day.
Rest In Peace

I heard the stories of your service and death while growing up. I saw the pain still in my father's eyes. I think I would have liked you and you me...no doubt we would have been "buds." Thank you for what you planted in my dad and uncles. I look forward to a time when all of our family will again be united in Heaven. Thank you, grandad for your example. Tell dad I send my love.

Each day I try to read the ODMP. Today I read your story. Any officer who dies in the line of duty will always be remembered for his sacrifice. You died a hero. Rest in peace Constable Rodgers.

Time will never diminish the sacrifice of a fallen hero. You will never be forgotten. May he rest in peace forever for the peace that he gave to us so long ago, and his family be blessed in all the years to come.
