Carlson of Cookeville, Tennessee, who passed away at the age of 85, on November 20, 2025. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid Rodney 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 Rodney is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
