Perry Rogers, 64 passed away on Monday, January 12, leaving behind a life defined by love, laughter, and a deep devotion to his family. He was a man who found joy in the simple things—powerful engines, open roads, and time spent with the people he loved most.
He found joy in cars, trucks, and motorcycles. In the work of maintaining them, the conversations they sparked, and the simple pleasure of being out on the road.
Above all else, he adored his grandchildren. They were his greatest pride and joy. He loved spending time with them, especially playing video games together — laughing, competing, and creating memories that will be treasured forever. To them, he wasn’t just pop-pop, he was a friend, their biggest fan, and constant source of love and encouragement.
Perry will be remembered for his big heart and his playful nature. His presence will be deeply missed, but his legacy lives on in the stories shared, the lessons taught, and the love he had for his family.
He is survived by his wife, Michelle, children, Bobby (John), Bridget, and Jennifer, his grandchildren, Nicky, Charley, Sammie, Jaxon, and Macy, his sister Rose Malkowski (late Jimmy), brother Neil and many nephews and nieces.
Relatives and friends are invited to gather and celebrate his life Saturday January 17, 2026 beginning at 9am in the Hubert M. McBride Funeral Home 2357 East Cumberland Street Philadelphia, PA 19125, followed by his prayer service at 10:45am.
