With his devotion and dedication to the department advancing through several distinguished positions during his 30 years of service, Lieutenant Brown retired from the Sheriff’s Department. During his career, the Sheriff’s Department received many letters of appreciation from citizens and local businesses, as well as commendations from his supervisors describing him as a “dedicated and loyal person whose integrity is beyond reproach.
Rodney was also a devoted and caring family man. He loved the great outdoors and traveled throughout the US primarily by way of motorhome and four-wheeling. After retirement, Rod settled in Douglas County, Nevada for the past 25 years, enjoying the games offered in Nevada and relaxing at his home. He returned to Stockton, California in November 2017.
He is survived by his loving wife of 38 years, Toni Brown, his sister - Rexine Wilson, five children from his previous marriage with the late Betty Brown - Debbie Seely, Dennis Brown, Cheryl Villanueva, Danny Brown and Michael Brown, three step-children - Tristan Boscacci, Peter Boscacci and Doug Boscacci, sixteen grandchildren, one great grandchild along with many nieces, nephews and relatives.
