Rodney Brain Schwab. Rod passed away on December 15, 2015, after a brave fight with cancer. Rod was truly one of a kind; he could light up the room with his crazy sense of humour and his quick wit. He could think his way out of a sticky situation and make everything work. It didn’t matter if it was an old piece of machinery, a wrecked car, a broken toaster, or an injured puppy; give Rod two shoelaces, a stick of gum and he could fix it. His kindness and compassion was felt by everyone who met him. He always cared for others and did whatever he could to help someone else. Rod had the biggest heart! He believed in honesty, justice and hard work. He was never afraid to tell you exactly how he felt and would fight for the underdog. Rod leaves to mourn, his wife Sharon; three beautiful children Brent, Chelsea and Steven; two wonderful grandchildren Linden and Payten Schwab; one sister Judy and one brother Rick. He also leaves his extended family of in-laws, nieces, nephews and cousins who also mourn and will remember him fondly. May you rest in peace Rod. God bless you and your loving heart.
