We all send our love and prayers and ask that God surround you with his loving arms and give you comfort. Louise Strayer Sinnott and the Strayer family.
I am so thankful I was able to visit with Uncle Rod and Aunt Sally a couple of years ago. One of my favorite memories of Uncle Rod is during Christine’s wedding. A few of us were in the parking lot after the ceremony getting ready to go to the reception. David decided to toss his sport coat in the trunk. Of course once the trunk shut he realized the keys to the car were in the coat. As we all stood there dumbfounded, Uncle Rod pulls a janitor sized key ring full of keys out of his pocket and begins looking for a Ford key. It took a minute or two, but he found one that matched and popped open the trunk. Once again, we were all dumbfounded, this time with big smiles on our faces. Rest In Peace Uncle Rod. You will be dearly missed.
Great memories of Thanksgiving family gatherings at Uncle Rod and Aunt Sally’s house. Uncle Rod was a master turkey carver. Deepest sympathy to the Custer family.
Love - Chris, Ashley, Mason & Brinley Bang
Rod will be missed by many and remembered by all as a caring and giving man. His love of family was always first. He loved the water and was a charter member of the Sunrise Hunt Club on Maryland’s Eastern Shore. If you ever needed a tool or a part, you could just about guarantee he’d have an extra or give you the one he had. He was a great boss and one hell of a friend. Rest In Peace Marine!

Remembering all the wonderful memories of sweet Uncle Rod. He was always so special. I loved going for boat rides with him. He taught me to water ski and how to carve a turkey. We will miss him, but the memories will stay with us forever. God be with you all at this very sad time. Our hearts are with you.
Love,
Denise and Bill
To Sally, David, Christine and your entire family. I am a dear friend of Theresa and Dave in WI. I have met Sally and Rod a number of times on their joyous visits here. I am so so sorry for your loss and send my condolences and prayers to your entire family. May God be with you.
Love you, Dad. I’m really going to miss you. Thanks for all of your love and support over the years. Thank you for welcoming me into your family and thank you for raising a wonderful son. He’s the best husband and father a girl could ask for. He’s a “mini-me” of you in countless ways. You will always be present in him. Rest In Peace, dad and give Stephen a hug for us. Until we meet again. ❤️ 🙏🏻
So many memories of Uncle Rod...driving cars, water skiing, boating, carving turkeys, watching ball games and laughing. We love you all. With Deepest Sympathy, Debbie and Bill
