Rod found a new home in Oaxaca, Mexico with his wife, Linda. Every summer you could find them in Monarch spending time with family and friends. Rod had a deep love for Mexico. He loved everything about his home in Oaxaca. He loved the Mexican culture, good friends, food, coffee, and his two favorites, chocolate and mezcal.
