Condolences

Condolence From: Roger Clifford Clapp
Condolence: Although my college sweetheart and wonderful wife of 56 years succumbed to Parkinson's disease in July and cannot join me in sadly observing this anniversary, I feel compelled to again celebrate Rodney Foil's life and, on behalf of my father, who was one of his biggest admirers, wish comfort for the family and others as they adjust to another year without Dean Foil. His legacy continues.

Condolence From: Milo and Ann Shult
Condolence: Rosalind and family,
We were so very sorry to learn of Rodney's passing. He was very special to us. I admired him greatly and will always be thankful that we could be colleagues. I also loved him dearly as a friend. Please know that you are and will continue to be in our thoughts and prayers. Our faith tells us that, while we mourn his passing, we also celebrate his birthday in Heaven. The Lord had to be very proud to welcome such a wonderful person home.

Condolence From: Roger Clifford Clapp
Condolence: One of Dad’s proudest achievements as the first Dean of the School of Forestry at his beloved Mississippi State was persuading Dr. Foil to take the reigns and guide a transition that made retirement and eventual Dean Emeritus status rewarding. The Clapp Family is honored to add a final salute to such a fine public servant and true gentleman. —R.C.C.

Condolence: Ros--saddened to hear this. I will never forget our time together at Gene Morrison's Naming Ceremony at Brown Loam. We visited on the side of a field with Rick Snyder from Truck Crops. I think I kept my arm around Dr. Foil the whole time. Thinking of you with love.

Condolence From: Dr. Joyce B. Giglioni
Condolence: Rosalind and family. My thoughts and prayers are will you. May you have comfort in knowing your loved one touched so many lives in very special ways. When there are no words to soften what you are feeling at the moment, may your spirit be touched by the love that surrounds you and slowly may the healing begin. We must seek to rejoice because a dear person has been given new life. . . We grieve because we are human and love deeply. With sincere sympathy, Joyce G (former MSU colleague of Dr. Foil)
