Rodney Gerald Arthur Gutknecht

June 19, 1956 to May 12, 2013


Rodney Gerald Arthur Gutknecht passed peacefully in his sleep on May 12, 2013 at the Vancouver General Hospital when he succumbed to brain cancer. Rodney’s passing was sudden and with dignity, but with his two sons, Mark and Benjamin, by his side, he did not leave this world alone. Throughout his fight he kept his good sense of humour and used laughter as his medicine of choice.

Rodney will be sadly missed by his loving family, including his sister Sheryl, his two brothers Randy and Russell, and everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him. A celebration of life will be held at the Rod and Gun Club on Saturday, May 25 from 2 to 6pm.

Please join Rodney’s friends and family in sharing memories and happy times spent with him.
