Rod, you were like family, a friend, mentor and coach all rolled up into one. I hope that I can truly be as genuine, selfless and conscientious as you one day. Prayers and blessings to the Handys, Lewises and Woodys.

Rodney truly defined the word "gentleman" both on and off the court. Just a wonderful man, and someone I wish I had kept in touch with more as the years went by - all too quickly.
