Gone but never forgotten rest in peace Rod

Rod, from what I knew of you, you were such a sweet guy and you made my mom so happy. I'm lucky to have talked with you the few times that I did. Even though you were my step dad, you made me feel like one of your own. I wish I could've spent some time with you and became closer with you. You will always be in my heart.

It was Oct 2012 my sister Loriann moved to Fort McMurray to live with me and my family.  Her youngest child was gone to university and she felt lost and it was time to try to make a new beginning. Little did she know she would find the love of her life.  From the first time I met you I could see a sparkle that i had not ever seen before in my sisters eyes.  My heart is full of sadness for my sister and the family your time with all of them has been cut short. Always remembered and never forgetten.

Sue, Monica, Michelle & families,

So sorry for the loss of your dear Dad, Grandpa & Great Grandpa.  Rod was one of the best partners I've ever had. 

Rod I am going to miss you brother; I've said it to you before - Till we meet again.

Bill

As Rods fiance, I feel very blessed to have been chosen by him.  We shared our days as one with much laughter and made so many good memories. He will never be gone in my heart. Til we meet again...Love you forever...xo  

Loriann

Rod, you have been my brother inlaw for 43 years. The loss of you weights very heavy on my heart. You were and are a good man and good father. I will miss you dearly. I promis to be here and watch over your beautiful daughters, Monica, Suella and Michelle, just the way you and Joey watched over my daughter 33 years ago, in my time of need. 
    Rod if you are watching down on us please give Joey, Tim and Natasha a hug for me and tell then I love and miss them.
     I hope the angels treat you better there than they did here.
    R.I.P Rod, you will never be forgotten!

My heart goes out to all of you.Words can never express the depth of the loss of a parent or loved one.I'm sure though that your mom and now your dad will always be with you and looking over you.                                           Love you always,Aunty Gerry

Rod: You were the first supervisor I had entering the world of security. 20 years later and I'm still here, and a large part of that goes to the lessons you taught me. Rest easy my friend, your torch is now mine to carry. To your family, my most heartfelt condolences. Gone, but never forgotten.

This is such a terrible thing to happen to a great friend who was there for me when I needed help.  He will be missed!!!   So very sorry.  May God grant you all comfort during this difficult time.

Words can not express what he ment to us. He was loved deeply, growing up with his laughter and his guidance was a true blessing.The way he would smile when he would tease us all would light up a room. A unfillable hole is left,but I know he is with great grandma and grandpa and that is a great place to be.

Rod you your big Brother we are you  going to miss you. four sisters and one brother.we will miss all way

This is such a tragedy!!! My heart goes out to all of Rod family and friends at G4S..  Sending my prayers and love to all of you through this difficult time... This touches my heart very close as I was an armored guard for many years.. God bless this family

TO: Suella, Monica & Michelle

My Prayers go out to those that are filled with memories of Rod. He was a Son, Brother, Father, Uncle & Cousin. I pray that their burdens be removed and that your love will surround them and fill them with relief.

Our memories of him are so vibrant, as it was so clear how much he loved being around his family. Our thoughts and love are with each of you during this difficult time.

It was an honor to have worked with you Rod. I will always cherish the chats and the laughs that we shared while working together at G4S.My heartfelt sympathy and condolences to the family.

Uncle words will never be enough. You were hugs,and love while we grew up. I will always remember your smile,your laugh when you loving teased us.

My prayers go out to the family and friends. We don't know why Rod was called by the Lord so quick. We never know the day or the hour.  I was privileged to know Rod as a work mate and a friend. I'm very grateful for that.

We were saddened to hear of Rod's passing and we both would like to pass on our sympathy and our prayers to Rod's family and his children.
