I was honored to have worked with Mr. Rodes in the 80’s, one of my first jobs out of high school. He made quite an impression on me and I was touched by his gentle spirit. God just doesn’t make em like that any more. He was a precious jewel. I am sorry for your loss but also know what an incredible blessing he was to your lives and what a joy it was just to be in his presence.

I was fortunate to work at SRW '67-'70 in Mr Rodes' dept while going to VPI. What a wonderful group he had there. He was highly respected by all the staff. I learned much about business and working with professionals. My prayers are with his family.
