Journal entry by Wendy Lemlin —
This is from Janet Winkler:
As many of you know Rod passed this morning due to complications from his cancer but ultimately succumbed to cardiac arrest. It is a very sad day for all that knew him and if you knew him you loved him. Wendi appreciates all of the phone calls and the texts she’s getting. However, she is so overwhelmed and would appreciate if everybody shared your thoughts and feelings here.. She will get back to all of you at some point but you can just imagine how overwhelming all of this is while she is trying to come to grips that the love of her life, is gone forever. So please, just for now, no more phone calls, no more texts.  She loves and appreciates you all and understands that Rod has a special place in everyone’s heart.
