Ellen & family, so sorry to hear about Rod´s passing. I enjoyed working with Rod at Bearings Supply many years ago. He was always a fun loving guy & had a great smile.

Rod had that Pioneer spirit and pure love of adventure. Always had a smile and a handshake no matter how long between meetings. My condolences to his bride Ellen, his Children and Grandchildren and all his friends. He will be remembered and always missed.
