In loving memory of Rodney George Priest, who sadly passed away on 20th April 2025.

Rodney was a cherished father, grandfather, brother, and friend. His warmth and kindness touched the lives of many. He will be remembered for his gentle spirit, sense of humour and love for his family. His gentle nature and generosity touched everyone who knew him. Though he is no longer with us, the care and compassion he showed in life will remain a lasting light in the lives he touched.

-In Truth-

Even in Fiction there is implanted Truth
As even in life there is implanted death
To some
Death is the end
And life after death a fiction

But In Truth
Death is Transition
And the continuation of life everlasting
And only the end
Of the physical body's restrictions

By Rodney George Priest

  • Thankyou for your kind words at my dad’s funeral, they were really important to me. Rods grandchildren and I watched the funeral over the video stream from the north east I would love to hear more about dad over the time you knew him. Dad said that he would put his spiritualism books aside for me, but unfortunately I never received them, so if you have a recommendation of a book he liked, I’d love to purchase it. Unfortunately it was a complex situation, as life often is.
