His unsurpassed loyalty and friendship were all encompassing. He was incredibly forgiving to all he came in contact with. He was a good soul who never had an unkind word to say about anyone and was always there to lend a helping hand, to those in need. He was compassionate and understanding. He acted as a father and a positive role model to all, above and beyond his immediate family. Rodney left his mark on both the ones who loved him and the people he interacted with each day. His life will be remembered in the hearts of all who had the pleasure to know him.
