My memories of Sis. Rodriguez are from camp when I was a teen-ager. She and her husband were deans of our camp. I remember at night Bro & Sister Rodriguez would walk the grounds and check on all of us to make sure we were in our dorms. Bro. Rodriquez could be heard shouting , "Curfew, get in your dorms!" and shining a big flashlight. Sometimes he walked with Bro. Mendenhall. But we knew they loved us enough to check on us and make sure we were in for the night. I am 50 and one of the highlights of my life is Fortville camp and the relationships I had with people I met there. Your family is in my prayers. Love, Sis.
