Obituary For Mr. Harris “Roddy” Vickers

"When peace like a river, attendeth my way, when sorrows like sea billows roll Whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to say It is well, it is well, with my soul It is well with my soul It is well, it is well with my soul"

It is with great sadness and a profound sense of loss that on behalf of Harrington Funeral Home Inc., we stand with the Vickers Family.

As God closed his loving eyes, He gently whispered, peace be thine to Mr. Harris “Roddy” Vickers, 79 of Valdosta, GA who slept into eternal rest Thursday, October 26, 2023.

Celebration of Life will take place at 11:00 AM on Saturday, November 04, 2023, from the sanctuary of Antioch Baptist Church. Mr. Vickers will be laid to rest in the Riverview Memorial Gardens.

Let it come, as it will, and don’t be afraid. God does not leave us comfortless, so let evening come.

Final Care and Compassionate Services are being provided to the Vickers and connected families by Harrington Funeral Home, Inc.

I'm so sorry to hear this news my deepest sympathies to the vickers family rest in paradise Roddy🙏

I saw Roddy when I was 18 at Ferguson Tile co. And thought he was such a handsome man. Many years later we connected up for lots of adventure and fun. The memories are too many to even count. Thru the years , I watched him love and take care of my father-in-law Walter Autrey and then years after that I watched him take care of my Dad....Charles Duncan. He had "the gift" that few folks never are lucky to have.. He loved unconditionally.....loved Beverly and all of his children & grandchildren. I will miss our chats.....but, he has gained his star ! He was a very important part of my life ==== I would call him my 'black brother"........and we would just laugh. I was lucky to have loved that beautiful man & the love was returned. I promise Roddy—- when I see you again I won't have you 'move" any of my furniture here & there. As Papa would say " You were one sport model " Thanks for a boat load of memories........you are the best ever. Xoxo 🥰. Jane
