My Life “Rod” was my friend. He was a member of the “The Texas Cowboy Shoots “El Roy.” I met My Life at a shoot down in Port Aransas organized by “The Mom.” We became good friends over many years of the shoots. We often shared a motel room at the shoots. He snores like a damn chain saw but fortunately I just take out my hearing aids and all is good.

My life was a 100% conservative patriot. He was Navy on nuclear subs. He was sonar if I recall correctly. He also organized a couple of Texas Cowboy Shoots up near Dallas in Segoaville. They were a great success and enjoyed by all.

If there every was a man to have your back when he was young and strong, My Life is the man. He is not my brother by blood but he is my brother in life.

The last couple of years have been tough on My Life due to his progressive lung disease.

We love you My Life. You are in a better place today. I will see you later my friend.

cpdiii (The Cook) after El Roys also sad passing years ago.

I could not have said it any better. I am honored to have known him as a FRiend, both here and in person. Rod had an eclectic style and knowledge of many subjects, especially food, lol.

Fair winds & following seas, my brother.
