Damien, Devin & Derek.
I’m greatful that your Dad had the comfort of having you each with him , in his final days. Thank you for allowing me to share some time with him.
Your Father would be proud of the strength, compassion and dignity you surrounded him with.
My belief is that his Spirit & Soul have reconnected with your Mom, and they are together in peace.
Rod was a good Brother and he was a good man.
Be at peace Rod.
Love you Brother
Uncle Jeff
