Rodney is survived by his wife of 46 years, Carol Frederick; son Jeff Frederick (Anna Frederick); brother Philip Frederick; granddaughter Ava.

Rodney was preceded in death by father HoBart Frederick and mother Lourie Shoffner-Frederick.

There are many ways to describe Rodney but Husband, Father, Brother, Grandpa, Uncle, and Teacher really captures what he felt in his heart.
