Rodney Kurt Bollman
By -
He was born on Feb. 9, 1955, in Madison, Wis., to Ruth Elaine Kurtz Bollman and Almon Rodney Bollman. Rodney grew up in Wisconsin and was a 1973 high school graduate from Oregon, Wis. He graduated in 1978 from Grand Rapids School of the Bible & Music, where he studied music and pastoral studies. Rodney earned his bachelor’s degree from Grace College in Winona Lake in 1986, concentrating on biblical studies and history. Rodney played with the Grace Saxophone Quartet as well as with the Grace Community Wind Ensemble.
Rodney married Rebekah D. Head in 1978 and they shared the next 44 years together. They were blessed with three children and later with three grandchildren.
He served the Lord as an associate pastor at Pleasant View Bible Church in Warsaw where he was a longtime member and Sunday school teacher. More recently he worked for Lee Contractors in restoration and painting. He was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother and a friend to many. He would most want to be remembered for his faith in his Savior Jesus Christ.

Bollman Jr., Indianapolis; two daughters, Stacey Bollman, Warsaw; Amy (John) Franklin, Warsaw; and three grandchildren: Alexa, Oakley and Isla Franklin.
