The Modesto Bee | John Rogers is a high flier in charitable giving in the Modesto area

The Modesto Bee | John Rogers is a high flier in charitable giving in the Modesto area: "ohn S. Rogers spent 26 years as a pilot in the U.S. Air Force, rising to the rank of colonel.

When his mother, Carnation heiress Mary Stuart Rogers, died in 1993, he suddenly found himself piloting a completely different type of vehicle: the philanthropic foundation she'd quietly established in 1985 to use her fortune to help others. Quietly, indeed."
