So sorry for your loss.
Eileen, Colton, Rudy, and Family,
We are so sorry for your loss. We are grateful to have had him in our lives. He loved you all so very very much. His strength and courage were amazing. Eileen, your devotion to Roddy & your family is beyond compare and Roddy recognized it every single day and appreciated it with all his heart. May he rest in peace and may you all find comfort in the days ahead and the memories that you made. Thoughts and prayers are with you and all. God Bless.
We are so very sorry for your loss. Roddy will be sadly missed by all who knew him. Malcolm has so very many fond memories of times when the Cull brothers were growing up and the escapades they had together. More recently Roddy frequently made an effort to send Abigail funny little items on Facebook he thought she would laugh at. A true gentleman who will be very sorely missed.
