	In Memory of our Fallen Brother Rodney Baumgart January 1964 - August 2011 There are some we meet in passing And forget as soon as they go There are some we remember with pleasure And feel honoured and privileged to know You were that kind of person Who leaves beautiful memories behind And there will be many days Which will bring fond memories to mind

In a New York Times article from 2009, columnist Thomas Friedman compared the game of golf to life. "Baseball, basketball and football are played on flat surfaces designed to give true bounces. Golf is played on an uneven terrain designed to surprise. Good and bad bounces are built into the essence of the game. And the reason golf is so much like life is that the game like life is all about how you react to those good and bad bounces." Do you scream and yell? Do you throw your clubs? Or do you just accept the good with the bad and move forward, as Rod always did. Hence the saying: Play one round of golf with someone and you will learn everything you need to know about his character.
