Roderick Dale Kauffman Obituary
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Roderick Dale Kauffman of Tampa, Florida, who passed away on March 21, 2026, at the age of 87, leaving to mourn family and friends. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.
As we bid Roderick farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Roderick is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
He was loved and cherished by many people including: his grandchildren, Megan, Joey and Ty; his daughters, Kelly and Tammi; and his wife Dena.
In lieu of flowers, a donation site has been set up for Ruby's Rainbow, a charity near to Dale's heart as it provides students with Down Syndrome the ability to attend college: https://secure.qgiv.com.
