To my extended Dunbar family,
I will never forget the times we had growing up. Rod was like another big brother to me and always took the time to talk to me know matter where I was when I saw him. Ms Costella, Anthony Shelton, Marcus and Danyeal my prayers will always be with you and I hope that somehow the memories of Rodney will put and keep a smile on your faces as you go through such a difficult time. From playing pinball at D's to wathching him play basketball at weisser park, Rod always had a special talent that made people admire the person he was. May God bless the Dunbar family and if you ever need me, I'm only a phone call away!
Love,
Errick Wash and the rest of the Coats family

KIMBERLEY STORY
September 23, 2011
Rodney We shared lots of years,
and had a whole lot of fun.
But God has called you
home to his son.
May your soul rest well,
my beloved brother,
but the day is not over,
because we shall share another.
Your tragic death
has left a big hole;
but I'll try not to fret;
your now a free soul.
So when times are great,
and happy as such,
I'll think of you, my brother,
I'll miss you so much.
So goodbye for now, my brother.
I have not one regret.
You were a part of my life
that I'll never forget.
