Texas. He will be missed by all who knew him. He was born July 26, 1940, in Simmons Bottom, Tx. to Charles Rhodes and Mable Majors Rhodes. ID attended Saratoga High school and then moved to Flatwoods, La. While in Flatwoods he joined the Navy and he traveled to many ports. He was a hardworking, loving, kind man that had the gift of gab. A man of his word, that never met a stranger. Until the last few years when he became ill, he spent many days on the Trinity river fishing with his friends. He loved to garden and share his crop with anyone in need of fresh veggies. He loved to be surrounded by family and friends especially his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. He let the world know that if he had known grandkids and great grands were so amazing, he would have had them first.

He was preceded in death by his parents; His wife of 37 years Charlotte and his son David Rhodes. Siblings Anna Lee Frazar, Charles “Buck” Rhodes, Loyce Collins, Ray Rhodes, Viola Davis, Dusty C. Rhodes, and Cassie Sims.
