Obituary

It is with profound sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Rodney Aronov on July 3, 2026, at the age of 38.

Born on March 21, 1988, Rodney grew up in Brooklyn, NY. He was a man whose heart was as big as his dreams. He was the proud owner of Reliable Collision, where his incredible work ethic, leadership, and passion for the auto body industry earned him the respect of customers, colleagues, and friends alike. To Rodney, his business was more than a career — it was a reflection of his dedication, integrity, and commitment to helping others.

Above all else, Rodney's greatest passion was being a father to Daneil. He loved every moment they shared together. His family was the center of his world, and everything he did was with them in mind.

Outside of work, Rodney had a deep love for music. Whether he was behind a drum set, strumming a guitar, or listening to his favorite songs, music brought him peace and joy. His talent and passion for both drumming and guitar reflected the energy and spirit he carried through life.

Rodney will always be remembered as a true legend by everyone who knew him. He had an extraordinary ability to put others before himself, offering kindness, support, and encouragement to anyone in need. Anyone who knew him could picture his signature grin and hear him crack his favorite line, "Why so serious?" — a phrase that captured his playful, easygoing spirit. His generosity, loyalty, and compassion touched countless lives, and his impact will never be forgotten.

Rodney is lovingly survived by his devoted wife, his beloved son Daneil, his father, his mother, his sister, and a large extended family, along with countless friends whose lives were forever changed by knowing him.

Although Rodney's life was cut tragically short, the legacy he leaves behind is one of love, strength, hard work, and selflessness. His memory will live on through the family he adored, the business he built, the music he loved, and the many hearts he touched.

Rodney will be deeply missed, forever loved, and never forgotten. His spirit will continue to inspire all who were blessed to know him.

"Legends never truly leave us. They live on in the stories we tell, the lives they touched, and the love they gave."

Family will receive friends on Sunday, July 12, 2026 from 2 pm until time of service at 4 pm., at O. R. Woodyard South Chapel, 1346 South High Street.
