Dear Cheryl: I am Mary from Adolph's Dealer Supply. I have never known your husband however everything Rodney ever told me was he was a very good man. I am sorry for your loss. I have been following this saga when he was sick and when he was fighting and was better? I am sorry for you and please keep feeding Rodneys' kids the jelly beans. Again, life is so precious! God Bless You. Your friend, Mary
