Just this morning in May I shared the impact that Rod had on my life and wanted to thank him. Beyond being a great adviser and Friend he taught the Study Skills class that enabled me to become a much better student and in turn so are my children. Rod is still a large force in my life and I thank his family for sharing him with us. Godspeed Rod and Thanks

Rickey, Melissa, and Jen ~

Words cannot begin to express how very sorry I was to learn of Rod's passing.  Your family, as well as those of us who were fortunate enough to know him and were gifted with his friendship, were truly blessed!  He was a wonderful man who touched so many lives.  His positive outlook could make even a bad day so much better and working with him was a delight!  My thoughts and prayers are with each of you during this very difficult time.  In Love and Sympathy, Lyn

Rickey, Melissa, and Jennifer,

There are just so many good memories.  We probably ate lunch together most days for about 14 years. And it brings a smile to my face to start thinking of all the good times we had, and of the multitude of things we talked about over those years at VWCC.

Please know that Sandy and I are thinking of you.
