We are so sorry to hear of Rod's passing. We have been neighbors across the street for many years. He has always been a neighbor that would always watch the house when we are gone. He even helped my daughters cut the grass as a surprise for their dad. Good family, good neighbors, something you don't see much of now days. Family you are in our prayers
