Rodney was one of those rare people whose warmth, wisdom and generosity left a lasting impression on everyone he met. I am grateful to have known him and to have shared in the friendship and support that he and Diane so freely gave to others.

Rodney was a great person to know and count as a friend. Kind-hearted and supportive often under the most trying of circumstances. Our long chats putting the world to rights will be sorely missed! He was one of a kind.
