Not sure what to say?

Renee and I lost track of Rod many years ago. We were all friends before the Ambassador days. We knew Rod in his "ultimate Beach Bum" phase. He used to take Renee to the beach daily in the summer months. We are sure he will be missed, but have comfort knowing his physical fight is over.

Debbie,
When there is love, any life is too short. Rod had a way of making the joys of life contagious. I have countless fond memories of times spent and miles traveled with him. I know you are grateful for your life with Rod, and I feel fortunate to have known him.

Debbie,
I also spent some time in Vail with Rod in the early ski-bum years but lost contact with him soon after. I have often thought of him as those times were very memorable. I always considered Rod to be a true friend and am sorry to hear of his passing. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Rod and I were buddies at AC, Pasadena. I am sorry to hear of his passing and yet it sounds like he is one of the sheep that God will separate from the goats on judgement day bringing him to eternal life within his kingdom. I pray that you will get comfort in the faith of his calling and mission. My prayers are with you and your family at this time and the months to come.

While I haven't seen Rod for many years, I have many fond memories of him and his family...If my memory serves me well, the family attended the Long Beach (CA) church, where I also attended. I of course knew Rod at AC where I was Dean of Students. I always respected him and enjoyed his personality and outgoing qualities which made him one of the very popular students on campus. He is missed but his memory will endure...

Sending my condolences to Rod’s family from one of his many friends during his years at Ambassador College in the 1970s.

Debbie and family,
I went to college with Rod and always enjoyed his great personality and love for life. I'm so sorry for your loss and pray that God will give you strength as you begin this difficult journey without your loved one.

Debbie, you and I never met, but I was one of three roommates that travelled from CA to Vail, CO. in the fall of 1979 to begin our "ski-bum" adventure together. Rod had already reserved a condo @ the East Vail Raquet Club! For a bunch of ski-bums, we lived pretty well.

I have wondered for years whatever became of Rod. I'm so sorry to learn of him this way.... I always wished we could have reunited and shared laughs and memories.

My thoughts and prayers go out to you...

Debbie,

On behalf of all the Hoeck family In Arizona and Illinois, please let us express our deepest condolences. We know we will see Rod again when our Lord calls for His saints.

In Sympathy,

Brad and Tara hoeck
