EMMERSON – Rodney James

I was very fortunate during my young adolescent years to have spent many hours with Rodney. He ignited in me my passion for gardening, classical music and the Goons. Our friendship continued until the very end, even to this day my family laugh at my “Rodneyisms”. We will miss you greatly, you have left your imprint on my soul. The world is now a poorer place for you no longer being in it.
Rest peacefully in Gods Garden.

Sincere condolences to glenice,Joan and extended family members on the passing of Rodney. A gentle man who was a very knowledgeable person in horticulture. We will miss you at Christmas lunch..may you find a restful spot under an oak 🌳 tree in heaven. R.I.P bernie, fiona.x

Rodney was a loyal contributor to the music at the Uniting Churches at Leongatha and Tarwin Lower for many years. He played organ and keyboard and always enjoyed singing. He was a gentle man well respected and loved. He will be missed.

To Glenice, Joan and family.
So many memories of Rodney from him being a boy riding his bike up Young street to go to school, and from the hours I spent out at the Emmersons. He will be sadly missed by many people and so much horticulture expertise no longer with us.

Condolences to Glenice, Joan and families, Rodney now working in Gods garden.

Deepest sympathy to Glenice, Joan and extended family members on the passing of Rodney. For about thirty years, until recently, we enjoyed discussing some of the ‘finer’ points with Australian plants when we met at the SGAP meetings.
R.I.P. Rodney.
