To My Dearest Brother Rod
The feeling of your loss is gutwrenching and so confusing. The last 7 years have been nothing short of, driving continuously on a road that has never-ending large pot-holes, rarely was well-being simply, a great day.
Rod, you showed and taught me so much wisdom and strength. Blessings I will hold on to eternally.
I’m eternally grateful for our time together in March, laughing and giggling at nothing sometimes, it was just natural. We had arguments, absolutely typical of our Brother Sister relationship. But, it was said and then greatly, we’d move on. Life is too short.
I am so grateful that you are finally at peace, making sure you had done everything to make all things right and set your Beautiful wife up so as not to worry about daily things. I said to Lynne last week, “Lynne, you have the most uncomplicated Family, I have sincerely ever known”! You have left a Blessed Legacy Rod, Mum and Dad would be so proud of you.
I thank you for the 57 years I had to look up to you, not always fun but, our Brother Sister relationship. I have known your heart and have tried my best to be the very best human being I could. There will be people attending in some format from, miles away but, that’s because, you shared your heart with people so naturally from, all walks of life. I’m so proud and immensely grateful that our time together was filled with love. No more pain Dearest Rod. Hoping for mercy and peace, to all of us who knew and loved Rod were, so purely Blessed to have been in your presence. I will miss you my Precious Brother, I will always love you, Lizzie
A true gentleman, RIP.
