25 October 1951 – 7 June 2023
Peacefully at home after a short illness aged 71 years. Loved partner of Jill, cherished dad and in-law to Sarah and Stuart, beloved Poppa to Max and Lexi. He had a life well lived and touched so many with his generosity and will be massively missed. Race on Rodney - go hard and win them all.

I feel all the better from knowing Rodney over a long period of time in motorsport with Pukekohe Car Club and in the clubrooms enjoying the odd rum, or two. Also sitting in his VW with him on a Targa event and Rally of The Far North, although to be honest with his arms and legs hitting me and the crazy speed that beetle could obtain it was sometimes not an entirely pleasant affair. Sorry I was responsible for stripping your reverse gear from a stupid error on my part! Anyway thank you Rodney for some really special memories. Your friend Colin
