Just learned of Rodney's passing. Great guy and a helluva baseball player. Had some fun times with Rodney back in the day. Will be missed.

Jeanine and family,

I'm so sorry to learn of Rod's passing. Rod was a good friend in high school and we shared great experiences fishing in the Maumee, hunting, and swimming in St. Lukes pond. I can't think of my high school days without great memories of Rod. I reconnected with him recently when I moved back to Maumee and he would stop and chat during his walks with Pickles. He was one-of-a-kind and will be greatly missed.
