Elmer Owen Rodes Jr.

I was honored to have worked with Mr. Rodes in the 80’s, one of my first jobs out of high school. He made quite an impression on me and I was touched by his gentle spirit. God just doesn’t make em like that any more. He was a precious jewel. I am sorry for your loss but also know what an incredible blessing he was to your lives and what a joy it was just to be in his presence.

Mr. Rodes was always a nice gentleman.Our prayers and thoughts are with the family.

Mr. Rodes was always a favorite of mine. I enjoyed the talks we had and he was always in good spirits when I saw him. I'm very sorry for your loss, I know he will be missed dearly.

Gary and I are so sorry for your loss. Mr. Rodes was a very special man. Our prayers are with the entire family.

I was fortunate to work at SRW '67-'70 in Mr Rodes' dept while going to VPI. What a wonderful group he had there. He was highly respected by all the staff. I learned much about business and working with professionals. My prayers are with his family.

Mr. Rhodes will be missed greatly. I worked at Brandon Oaks where he lived and he was one of my favorite residences, he was so funny and caring. He was so friendly. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.

Please know that your family will be lifted up in prayer by all of the staff at Gentle Shepherd Hospice.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
