R.I.P GREENMACHINE he only takes the best my sympathy to his family and friends xx
Terrible news, he was a brave man
RIP Rod .

The word Hero is all too often abused and ill used but not in Rods case for how he conducted himself towards the end. The manner in which he dealt with and portrayed his problems was a lesson in humility and courage that few of us could probably aspire to.
Another bbs "legend" has gone but won't be forgotten.
RIP Rod "Respect"
My sincere condolences to his family.

All of us could take a lesson from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.

So sorry to read this
From some of Rods posts about his thoughts on if he was going to continue to fight his condition I gathered things were not well (to say the least)
I never met him but enjoyed his posts and his outlook on life. Another one of the well loved members of the BBS has gone and will be missed without a doubt.
RIP
Mark
My karma ran over your dogma
R.I.P mate,
his posts over time showed him to be one of the very few real true selfless gents even in the face of the big C.

Never go off half cocked....
All lies matter
Truly saddened.
Didnt know him personally, apart from him being one of the bbs `characters`.Just done a search through past posts of his, and a more humble, grass roots shooter, you couldnt hope to meet.Off the cuff comments about himself and what were really very serious problems brought a tear to the eye.A propper `wild thing`.
Rest in peace buddy.
Andy.
I have just noticed this sticky.
My condolences to Rod's family. People have already said it but his fight and his courage were truly remarkable. The BBS has lost one of its more memorable figures.
RIP Rod.

Can't add any words or sentiments that have not already been expressed.
Rod will be sorely missed.

All generalisations are dangerous, even this one!
Will miss him a lot. An inspiration indeed.
In the early days of the UKAHFT, I got lost getting to Quarry (Before Satnav) eventually Gazo came out and guided me into the field where we were to camp.
When I got up in the morning there was Rod grinning from ear to ear with a cup of tea for me, I didn't even hear him arrive. We spent quiet a few hours simply talking about our time and experiences in the army.
Over time I got to know him and it is with great sadness to hear of his death today, he fought hard even though he had depressive moments..RIP and farewell Rod.
