Prayers for the Rogers and Walther Families

We are in a time of deep sadness in this music community.  Very soon after Zack Walther lost his baby Lennon to a very courageous health battle, Randy Rogers’ newborn daughter Rumer has gone to be with our Lord too.  We will be donating proceeds from GF15 to the Lifting Up Lennon campaign.  Below are two statements regarding the Rogers’ situation.  We are only posting this to spread the news that the Rogers family wishes to use this tragedy as a tool to help raise funds for children’s charities.  Our most sincere thoughts and prayers go out to the Rogers family and continue to be with the Walther family.

Publicist statement:

“Rumer Rain Rogers, daughter of Randy and Chelsea Rogers, passed away last night at Seton Memorial Hospital in Austin, Texas. Rumer died of natural causes, in her parents loving arms, just days after her birth. During this time of grieving, the family asks that individuals wishing to offer condolences make a donation to the children’s charity of their choosing.”

Randy’s direct statement:

“Good morning. Rumer passed away last night. She died after a week long battle with a very rare condition. She died in our arms and in no pain. She was absolutely beautiful in every way. Her brain however was very sick. I’m sure you all have many questions and we have all the answers the doctors gave us. We can share the story with you. It’s quite an extraordinary one. A memorial will be planned soon. We love you.”
