Below are Rodney’s final requests to his friends:

“Unfortunately, I did not make my goal to live until 75. I left this world at the age of 60, in the arms of my loving wife. Don’t fret over me as I have known love and life well beyond my years, surrounded by my amazing family.

My last request is that each of my friends and family join my loved ones at a memorial service at Sorge Funeral Home Inc., Hollidaysburg.

Please do not tell my family you are sorry for the loss of me. Rather, tell them why you are happy to have known me.

I’ll see you later. Love always, Senior.”
