Delores
Today I heard of the passing of Rod. We send our condolences. We new he was in the beginning stages of Alzheimer's but had not idea he was that advanced until our "senior" outing. We read that you will be having a service in Park City and we would like to be in attendance. Our Love, Joni and Paul Phillipp
