My condolences to all his family.
Family and friends,
We’ve been so sorry to hear about the progression of Rodger’s illness and of his passing. Randy remembers how the two of them became fast friends once they realized how much they both enjoyed baseball and fishing. I’ll always remember his jovial spirit and warm welcome when I’d come down to visit and spend a few days with Ryan, Staci & the boys.
Brady, Luke & Ella, your grandpa loves you very much and will continue to watch over you from heaven very proudly, as he’ll see all you accomplish as you grow up.
Do know that you all are in our thoughts and prayers and may God give you strength and peace as you move through this difficult time.
Rodger,
You were more than just a neighbor. You were a friend. You would give the shirt off your back to anyone, that’s just the kind of man you were. Your spirit was kind and caring. I remember when I just moved in across the street from you you were so welcoming to me and my family. During the remodeling of my home you let us use your shower and let us wash our dishes at your house for months. 🙂 Your home was always open to us and I just want to say “thank you.” You will be missed and it’s so very hard to know that I won’t see your smiling face crossing the street or waving to us from your truck. You will always be remembered with great love and admiration. Rest in peace my neighbor and friend.
