He and Dorothy built a loving home and shared a wonderful life with their grandkids leaving many childhood memories that they will always cherish.
Rodney was a son, a brother, and a father to his grandchildren, and a loving great grandfather. He was a close friend to many who had the good fortune of getting to know him. His family will forever remember him for his stories, his laughs that he shared, and for his never leaving anything undone. He was a loving caregiver, and an honest hardworking man.
