Title: Renee Rogers Amazing Race 8: November 24, 2013
Post by: georgiapeach on November 25, 2013, 12:50:28 PM

I am so very saddened to report that Renee Rogers died yesterday after a six month battle with pancreatic cancer.

She and her husband Denny, and two of their children, Brittney and Brock, competed in The Amazing Race 8: Family Edition.  They finished in 9th place.

Renee raced 4 days with a severe concussion from a start line fall. Following the race, they opened their home to the Schroeders, teammates who lost everything in Hurricane Katrina.

Our hearts and sympathy go out the Renee Family. I know you will all join me in sending them love and prayers from their TAR Family, as we remember her with joy.

The obituary:

Linda Weaver just posted in the guestbook. There seems to be friendships to this day between former TAR teams (which makes me happy).

What sad news. I know how difficult that particular disease is as my mom passed from that when I was still in law school. My prayers go out to the Rogers family and their loved ones, and the rest of the TAR Racer community.

(And yes, there is a TAR Racer community, and it dates back to the cast of the original season.)

RIP. :(

They were my pre-season favourites in TAR 8 and after how they helped the Scheroeders, I loved them even more and it's definitely shocking and sad to hear this.
