Comments
According to his friend and teammate Chris Westerhof, Rod had been living in Cape Town for the last 15 years. He was diagnosed with stage 4 lymphoma three years ago. He was given the "all clear" three times during his fight but unfortunately the cancer was so aggressive and it came back each time. He leaves behind his wife, Mignon and two children, Luca (6) and Emma (3).
