A man is not dead until he is forgotten. Go in peace and remember you are not forgotten while I am still on patrol.

Message: This is Rodney's daughter Rose, I was doing research and found our old number listed for him here. He has since passed away but I would be happy to be contacted if anyone is searching for him. I have many pictures from his tours in Vietnam.

Thank you for doing this!

Floyd-
Thank you so much for reaching out, I did get your email but I keep forgetting to respond to be honest. My father passed away back in 2010, so it isn't recent. I have done research previously on my father and his military career and have been lucky enough to find some of the gentlemen he served with, Ed Warren being one of them. I happened to find your website and notice that the phone number listed was from over 15 years ago before my mother and father moved to Virginia. I do have a lot of photos that I'd like to share with you that others may not have and many of them I don't know who they are. I will get them together and send them to you to share and maybe someone will recognize themselves or another they served with.

My fathers service, particularly in Vietnam was a huge part of his life that he didn't talk about much and I've learned so much just chatting with Ed. Very excited to hear you all are having a reunion coming up, it's good to see that you all continue to support one another. I'll get those photos over to you soon, if you have any information on them that would be great if you could share back.

Have a great day and thank you again for reaching out!

If you could email me any pictures you have, stories, a copy or a link to his obiturary and anything else I would appreciate it.
