In loving memory or Roderick William Vincent, who sadly passed away in the early morning of Friday January 15th 2021 following a period of deteriorating health. He leaves behind his wife Verna, four daughters and 18 grandchildren. He was a loving and caring gentleman who made a lasting impact on everyone he met. He will be missed dearly by all those that knew him.

His funeral is arranged for the 15th February 2021 at Lichfield Crematorium in Fradley at 1.30pm. Due to the current COVID 19 pandemic, numbers are sadly limited, his family will make those who are able to attend his funeral aware prior to this date. The funeral cortege will assemble at his home address at 12.30pm and people are welcome to come and pay their respects at this time whilst following social distancing measures.

Please feel free to use this page to share photos and memories you may have of Roderick. We have also started a just giving page for his chosen charity Children in Need, a cause that was close to his heart and was his chosen charity during his time as Captain of the Walsall Golf Club, where he was a proud member for 70 years. Any donations made will be welcomed gratefully.

Condolences to Verna and family on the passing of Roderick. I first met my cousin when I was in UK in 1978. When Helen was a toddler and Sian soon to be born. Then again when Roderick and Verna came out to Zimbabwe/Rhodesia and stayed with my folks. First time Roderick met his Uncle Sox ( George). So we only knew each other from those times, but he was a lovely man and I enjoyed his company. Sending love and hugs to Verna and all his beautiful girls and their families.
