Rod was born May 7, 1953, in Perry, Iowa, the son of Murray and Juanita “Bowles” Stucker.
He graduated from Perry High school in 1971, then continued his education and career as a paramedic for Dallas County.
Rodney lived in Dallas County most of his life and was proud of his Volunteer work at the Adel Fire Department.
Rod had a passion for his community and helping others. He also enjoyed to hunt, fish and camp.
Later in life, when he met his wife, Liz, he learned that he had a passion to create enclosures for all of his wife’s “rehabs.”
Rod retired in 2015, living the next year in his RV while spending the winters fishing in Galveston, Texas, until he found the perfect place to park his wheels in Fairfield Bay, Arkansas.
He is survived by his wife; six children; eight grandchildren; one great-grandchild; sister, Linda; and mother, Juanita “Fern.”
He is preceded in death by his father, Beanie; brother, Earl; and brother-in-law, Jim.
