T.J. was an important member of the community and a well liked and effective principal and educator. I've been around to remember when he worked at the Doctors office in Mandeville and was so pleasant to everyone. Years later I was privileged to work with him in the School System. He will be well remembered.
T.J. Rogers was a great man and principal. He hired me at Fifth Ward Jr. High in 2000. He always backed his teachers and was a true leader and inspiration. You will be greatly missed T.J. May you Rest In Peace along with all the other angels.
Thank you Coach for being such a friend to your student George Welch. You were greatly appreciated.
So sad to hear about TJ’s passing. He always had a smile for everyone! I have fond memories of him as principal of Fifth Ward while I was teaching there. Rest In Peace, TJ. Heaven is a better place with you in it.

Coach Rogers was such a great coach and loved by so many! It’s been over 30 years since he was my coach and I can still hear his voice and see that sweet smile! He was the best!! 🙏
TJ was such a warm, Godly, loving man.
I only knew him a short while, but loved him as my Dad. He had the greatest sense of humor. I’m going to miss you terribly. It’s a horrible sad loss to know you won’t see your beautiful son, Michael, & I marry in St Peters when that special day arrives. No matter the passage of time, you’ll always be in our hearts & prayers. In my heart, you were my father-in-law. Rest In Peace, Mr TJ! I know now You’re finally safe in the loving arms of our savior, Jesus Christ. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
My thoughts and prayers are with you. TJ was a great man and a great principal. I had many fun times at Fifth Ward with him and his antics. The kids loved him.
