I just saw that Mr. Rodemich passed away. As you know he was such a sweet man. When my 29 year old son was in Kindergarten, Mr. Rodemich was his bus driver. On the first or second day of school my son left his back pack on the bus. Mr. Rodemich came to our house to deliver it. That was just the beginning of his ongoing kindness.
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I know Mr. Rodemich is definitely in heaven enjoying his eternal life.
We Express our sympathy to you Ruth Ann and your entire family.

I can't say enough about Marvin and the Rodemich family. When we moved to Columbia in 1975, he befriended our family without any questions. He introduced us to family, friends, and St. Paul UCC. He was a kind, gentle , caring man, that would do anything to help a friend or stranger. He will be dearly missed by all that knew him. Rest in peace Marvin!
A memory we have of Marv is in his apron cooking for the whole church family. He was always there to help in any way he could. Such a loving and giving man!
I still consider Marvin (and family) as a neighbor, and a great one he was. You would never question whether he was a man of faith, he wore it on his sleeve. May he rest in peace.
To the Family accept my sympathy Marv was a great man/friend to know R.I.P.
Marvin is one of those people that made everyone feel like a cherished family member. He has been a lifelong presence in my life, and our children’s lives. He was a loving chaperone taking our boys to school; he provided the comfort of a grandfather. And yes, we also enjoyed his grandfatherly presence on the sports scene as well. His radiant joy could be felt by all. Sincere condolences to the family, and may the comfort of knowing how well Marvin lived his life, and that he is with Scott, ease your pain.
