I spent many summer weeks as a child at Aunt Helen's farm and have fond memories of Rodney and his endless good humor. He always had a kind comment or joke to tell. He was a very hard worker, loved Charlene and his farm life, and was extremely welcoming if we came to visit. I am sorry his last years were so difficult, and will remember him fondly. - Posted by: Patricia Burrows (nee Thiessen) (Cousin) on: Jul 18, 2025
