Rod helped me lease my new business space and was so easy to talk to, deal with and had such a great sense of humor.

I had not idea he was still battling cancer? he was always positive, encouraging and spoke so highly about his family.

i'm going to miss him
warmest regards, John Kennedy

I remember meeting Rod for the first time at a soccer practice for the girls, exchanging names and wondering if he might be related to Jim, my husband, since they had the same last name. We even thought Meredith and Caty resembled each other!

Rod was full of life. He was always positive and encouraging to his children and the kids he coached. We were blessed to have known such a wonderful man. He leaves the legacy of an amazing family! Our thoughts and prayers are with you all of you.

Love, The other Fallons: Jim, Stacey, Caty and Christian.
