In the stillness of the dawning day on Monday, May 1, 2023 in the Pruitt Healthcare Center, Bamberg, SC, Rev. Roger Smalls, left all that is mortal to embrace the peace of God's eternal rest. A resident of Yemassee, SC, he was the husband of Joan Smalls. He was a son of the late Thelma Ann Robinson and Leroy Smalls. A native of White Plains, NY, he resided most of his life in White Plains. An entrepreneur, he was the owner of a cleaning business.

Rev. Smalls was a chosen vessel of God to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. His church affiliations in New York and South Carolina allowed him to satisfy his duty.

A voice we loved is stilled. The essence of his well-spent life remains near and dear to his wife, children, and his entire family.

Funeral services will be held on Monday, May 8, 2023, 11:00 am in the Canaan Missionary Baptist Church, 908 Trask Pkwy, Sheldon, SC 29941. Burial will follow in the Church Cemetery.

Your prayers and kind expressions of sympathy are appreciated.
