Scharlene Louise Jackway Rogers

December 7, 1953 — January 30, 2025

The Lord has called Scharlene Louise Rogers home, as she passed peacefully on January 30, 2025, at the age of 71. Scharlene was born in Idaho Falls, ID, and throughout her life, she called many places home due to her husband’s military service, including Fort Walton Beach, FL, and Montgomery, AL. She eventually settled in San Antonio, TX, where she built a life filled with love, laughter, and family.

 

Scharlene was a woman whose smile could light up a room, and her warmth was absolutely contagious. If you had the privilege of meeting her, you would never forget her. She had a way of making people feel loved, welcomed, and truly seen.

 

She is survived by her loving and caring husband of 41 years, Gary L. Rogers, Sr., and her children Rosalinda Alvarado, Sabrina Alvarado (Leo), Gabriel Alvarado (Jeana), Florencio Alvarado, Barbara Alvarado Morgan, and Demetrice Rogers, as well as her step-son, Gary L. Rogers, Jr. Scharlene was also blessed with eleven grandchildren and ten great-grandchildren, who will carry on her memory and the love she so generously gave.

 

She is also survived by her loving sisters, Pamela Gonzales, Gracie Elaine Wall, Dottie Garza, and Terri George, along with her dear aunts, Joan Walton and Janet Miller. Their bond was a cherished part of Scharlene’s life, and she will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

 

Scharlene was preceded in death by her parents, Wilbur St. George "Bill" Jackway and Barbara Hall, as well as her beloved daughter, Christina Alvarado.

 

A viewing will be held at 10:00 AM, followed by a funeral service at 11:00 AM on Thursday, February 6, 2025, at Hondo Funeral Home, 2910 Avenue E, Hondo, TX 78861. After the service, a procession will proceed to Hondo Cemetery for burial. A reception will follow immediately at Hondo Community Center, 1014 18th Street, Hondo, TX 78861. Family and friends are invited to attend and honor the incredible woman she was.

 

Scharlene’s kindness, laughter, and unforgettable presence will be deeply missed, but her spirit will continue to shine through the lives of those she touched.
