Coach Rhodes made a positive impact on everyone that he came into contact with. Especially us ARC students. He never gave up on his and steered us in the right direction. Will truly be missed on earth but we gained an amazing Angel.

My prayers go out to his beautiful family. I remember when we were teenagers in high school and we were skipping or late for class. We knew coach Rhodes was coming and we had to vacate, when we heard those big bundle of keys he carried. Rest in peace to the LEGEND.,
