Collene Riggsbee Rogers - Losing sight (clip)

Collene Riggsbee Rogers: Yeah, he lost his sight. I think after he hit the judge, he was driving down Franklin Street and I guess the light changed and he moved and he didn’t see the judge, and he hit the judge. After that, they didn’t renew his license, I don’t think, because he had glaucoma. But he still did it up until the time and I used to tell him, “well Daddy you shouldn’t do it because you can’t see,” and he said, “that’s okay I can feel, I’ve been doing it long enough, I know how to do it, all I need is somebody to get me there.” So he did it up until he died of pancreatic cancer, and he did it all the way up until 1988.
