Dear Becky, Carolyn, Beth, and David: I am so sorry to learn of the loss of your father, It has been a lot of years since you were my next door neighbors, as children growing up. You have moved on, but I am still at the same location. Remember the good times in Saltville. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your families.

Mr. Rhodes I've known for seven years and was a freind to many of people in the Lebanon area.He was always on his toes and could make you laugh every time you seen him.A well presented gentle man always.He loved life and all in it.You could find him at the Lebanon quick stop in the morning siting at a booth with freinds.We all would cut fool and had many laughs and loved by all.He's by the side of the Lord and I'm sure the Lord had a chuckel or two when he arived in Heaven.He will be well missed by all.He would help out a freind in a skinny.Rest in peace my Masonic brother.
