I’ll miss you so much brother. Who will share the funniest stories? Who will indulge my corporate stories and push me in my career. Sunday nights without you and mom now will be so different. Rest in the Savior’s arms. God’s holy peace.

Rest well Uncle Rod. Time is a false measure of the impact you had on my childhood and some of the funnest and happiest memories therein. “Ooch ouch” will live on, I promise!

Will always have fond memories of Rod trying to test his sis Darene how to drive a stick shift Volkswagen in the early 1980s. Tried but failed because she couldn't handle it so after 2 attempts he finally gave up.
