Hello, Mary Ellen and Isaac. We have never met, but Tinner and I have been friends since the second grade. I made many trips to Urbana with her when the house on Urbana Creek was still being finished. Of course, I knew Rhoads as Tinner’s “little brother” whom we gave endless grief…naturally! Please accept my condolences. I know Rhoads will be sorely missed by many. Sincerely, Nancy
