It is with great sadness that the family of Beryl Ann Rogers Sweet, 86, of Salina, announces her passing. Beryl went to be with the Lord peacefully in her sleep.

A graduate of Mt. Hope High School, Beryl married James soon after graduation and devoted more than 50 years to working alongside him as a legal secretary.

Beryl lived a life full of joy, curiosity, and tradition. She was an enthusiastic fan of the University of Kansas Jayhawks, the Kansas City Royals, and the Kansas City Chiefs. She loved camping and spending time outdoors, and she passed on to her family a deep appreciation for animals and gardening. Musically talented, she found great joy in playing the piano, often filling her home with music. She also cherished celebrating holidays, creating warm, memorable traditions that her family will forever carry with them.

Beryl’s legacy is one of love, loyalty, and the simple but meaningful pleasures of a life well lived. She will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered by all who knew her.

Beryl is survived by her sons, James (Vicky) Sweet and David (Gina) Sweet; her daughters, Valarie (Mike) Muilenburg and Kathryn Sweet; 12 grandchildren; and 4 great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband James L. Sweet; her parents, Claire and Clare Rogers; her brother, Duane Rogers; her sister, Carol Fiskin; and her grandson, Jordan Sweet
