We are so sorry to hear of Rodney's passing. We were out of the Country and heard the news from friend when we returned. Rodney completed his work here and now rest with our Lord. The strength that Rodney showed in 1991 and to speak those 6 words after all his mind and body enthralled. God knew it all ...Rodney now rest in the arms of the Lord. To the family God is your comforter, and always there to strengthen your hearts. We keep you in our prayers.

To The King Family, What an amazing and kind man Rodney King was! He taught all of us what forgivness really means, if we know what God has to say in his word about forgivness and I quote "Love your enemies." Mr. King not only loved them he forgave them and it takes the love of God in a person to forgive such a horrific injustice that was done to him. Mr, king will always be remembered as a healer to this nation. I do hope that the world will realizes what a great man passed our way and be thankful as individuals and a country that he did pass our way, We are all the better becuase of him. May God continue to bless and comfort his family. MR KING YOU REST IN PEACE. I personally want to say THANK YOU.

Rodney King's personal mishaps left a legacy of social awareness. His personal behaviors caused everyone to become aware of the social injustices that exist in society. He didn't do it like Martin Luther King, Jr. He did it just by living life by his personal experiences and skills. He did not intent to change society; however, his behaviors changed the laws in society. People are now more aware of their interactions between each other and government authorities. That new awareness has led to social change in everything. Police, Schools, government agencies, and other public institutions are now more conscious in how they treat everyone.
Rodney King will be remembered for centuries. His behaviors are an example of what happens when things go wrong in our social systems. In a roundabout way, God sent him to cause people to think about how they treat each other. Rodney King is God's warnings of the effects of your prejudices.
Rodney King fulfill God's mission. Now God request for him to return home to Heaven.
On the day of the riots Rodney King said, “ . . . can't we all get along? . . . ". Well, can we?

To the King family I pray for your strength & comfort through this very hard time. To Rodney my prayer is that God grants you the rest & the peace you weren't allowed to have here on earth since that horrirying day in 1991. i remember watching you on Celebrity Rehab & saying what a nice laid back man you were, we all make mistakes in life but what those officers did to you was inhumane & you did not deserve that! Rest in heavenly peace brother where there is no pain.

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

I was always hoping he would have a happy and peaceful life. Tragic ending to a troubled past. Rest in peace and may your family be strenghtened during this difficult and trying time. Peace at last, but not this early in life. Wish he could've lived more and pursued happiness and serenity. Sad ending.

Crossing the Bar
Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,
But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.
Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;
For tho' from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crost the bar.
