Deepest condolences to Sue, Kelly and Rod's family and friends. I only just today learned of his passing. He was a good friend of my parents whom also have since passed, Tom and Sandy Beaver. He was always the sweetest and I have fond memories of visiting him when I was a kid.

Hello Kelly & Sue, I am sending my condolences with a heavy heart ... but also many happy memories of Rod. Kelly, you and both your parents are a big part of my positive childhood memories from Rockcliffe. Thanks for including me in so much of your family growing-up - we all had so many fun times thanks to you three. Rod had a big heart and will be remembered for that by all that knew him.
