Condolence From: Keith Bennett

Dear Barbara, Angela,Lesley and families. Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss. I was so shocked and saddened to read about Rod. Ever since our time together at C.A.W.L., starting in the late sixties, I always considered Rod as one of my best friends. He was a good man to work with or just to be with, always there to lend a hand if you needed it. He will be missed by everyone who knew him. Remember him for the good times and the bad times, and he will be with you forever.

My Condolences. Rod was a great guy, and a great Partsman. I can remember way back to Scott Automotive in the late 70`s. He taught me a few things that I still carry to this day.
