Tony’s death came to me as a shock! I have never known a more committed, devoted, and selfless person than Tony. I will never forget the energy he brought to any project in which he was involved. Nancy and I extend our deepest condolences.

Our sincere condolences to the Jerry and entire Rodich family. Tony was Tony and FULL of San Pedro. Tony and I were teammates on the Harbor College 1968 Football team. You always knew he was there because Coach Scrappy Rhea could be heard throughout the Harbor area screaming "RODICH". He was a good hearted man always giving credit to friends and teammates for their accomplishment , and a few of his too. He always had something going on in the back of his mind as the grinish smile in his photo. Rest In Peace my friend.
