Rodnie Stewart Welch

March 6, 1965 - May 23, 2020

Rodnie Stewart Welch, 55, of Sheboygan, WI passed away unexpectedly on Saturday May 23rd, 2020. Rodnie was born on March 6, 1965, in Chicago, IL to Ivan and Shirley (Lake) Welch. He was employed by Burger King in Traverse City, MI for nearly 30 years; investing much of his heart into his work. He received significant recognition in his leadership and management skills over the years and truly enjoyed motivating the people he worked with. Many looked up to him and often expressed how much they appreciated Rodnie. He was a faithful member of East Bay Calvary Church in Traverse City, MI. He loved serving in AWANA as a youth leader, assisting as an usher, and regularly meeting with his men’s group. He enjoyed the outdoors, the love of his pets, and serving others. More than anything, Rodnie loved to spend time with his family. He will be remembered as a godly man, always showing kindness, compassion, and gentleness to all people. Rodnie is survived by his parents, Ivan and Shirley; children, Brandon (Krystina) Welch of Sheboygan, WI and Amber (Josh) Wiggins of Thompsonville, MI; grandson, Ezekiel Welch; two sisters, Christine (David) Holly and Bethany Welch; and two brothers, Andrew Welch and Todd (Sandy) Welch. Rodnie was preceded in death by his infant brother, Ricky Welch. A memorial service will be held on Saturday June 6th, 2020 at 9:00am at East Bay Calvary Church in Traverse City, MI. In lieu of memorial flowers please consider a donation to World Vision or East Bay Calvary Church AWANA program; both ministries that Rodnie was highly involved with. A memorial service will be held on Saturday June 6, 2020 at 9am at East Bay Calvary Church. For social distancing purposes, doors to the church will open at 8:30am and friends can greet the family following the service. A private burial will take place at Oakwood Cemetery. The family is being cared for by the Reynolds-Jonkhoff Funeral Home. Kindly share thoughts and memories with his family at www.reynolds-jonkhoff.com.
