Jackson, Michigan
Timothy Lee Rodda, 61, of Jackson, Michigan, passed away on March 15, 2026. Tim's family and friends will gather for a celebration of life at 2:00 p.m. on March 29, 2026 at Somerset Free Methodist Church 12883 E. Chicago Rd. Somerset, Michigan.
Tim was born on December 25, 1964, in Hudson, Michigan to Robert and Patricia (Gove) Rodda. Tim attended Columbia Central schools and graduated in 1983. In high school Tim was in the marching band. His love of music continued well into adulthood as he played drums in several bands over the years. He had many hobbies that included sports, magic, camping and fishing. He enjoyed a good Detroit Tigers game and Halloween was his favorite holiday. He was once a guest on a local cooking channel, sharing his love for all things food related. He will be remembered by all who knew him, as a loving son, brother, father, uncle, and friend. Above all, his greatest joy and proudest accomplishment was being a devoted and active grandfather to his three grandsons.
Timothy will be missed by his daughter, Kasey (Thieo) Ortiz; his parents, Patricia and Robert; siblings, Bob (Nancy) Robiduox, Pam (Vince) Kramer, Jeff (Melissa) Rodda; grandchildren, Lincoln, Liam, Hudson; and many more loving relatives and friends. He is preceded in death by his grandparents, Leon and Ida Gove and his brother, John Orville Robiduox.
Memorial contributions may be given to family for future designation. Please leave a message of comfort for Tim's family or sign his guestbook at https://www.EinederFuneralHomes.com.
