He passed at the age of 59; @ 12:21am with his wife (Juanita/ Jin) by his side, @(Our Lady of the Lake-Bt. Rge. La. He's also survived by 3 brothers, his twin, ( RONNIE MCZEAL) Lucas Wayne (Eve) and Marty Mczeal. His beautiful sisters: Cynthia (Wilbert) Anderson and Charlotte Allen. Nephews: James (Michelle) Anderson, Joshua Mczeal, Emanuel & Lawrence Anderson. Rodney adored his beautiful nieces: Crystal Mczeal, Alisha Anderson & Jasonya Allen. His stepchildren: Jerome & Christie Gotch, (grandsons: Jerome Hodges & Ryan Brumfield. His uncle: Cavlin Andrus. Preceded in death by his father: Curlis J. Mczeal/ mother: Mary F. Andrus. Sisters: Linda F. Andrus & Ramona Mczeal. My husband requested a cremation process in which the family has honored with a private Memorial service. The family gives a heartfelted appreciation for ALL the kind words and your understanding at this heartbreaking time. Church Funeral Home of Baton Rouge is in charge of process. Rodney was a native of Lafayette La, he also attended NorthSide High; and worked several yrs as inspecter @ Speciality Tool/ Broussard La. He was baptized(ACTS 2:38) in his twenties @ the First Apostolic Church in Lake Charles La. He continued his walk with God over at the Pentecostals of Lafayette. Rodney and family relocated to Baton Rouge in 2009. There he met Mr. John Raby-Staring Ln. The family would like to thank Mr. Raby for the kindness and friendship that he has always extended towards our loved one. Also thanks to Mr. Eddie(Fuel Zone/Staring Ln. Baton Rouge) and Mr. Booker T. Green and his beautiful wife (Rhonda) for their concerns and thoughtfulness over the years; may God bless y'all richly! Rodney and his twin (RONNIE) had an infinity bond, from the phone to the fishing reel; together the two was a boiling-mess. Ronnie, God has him in a SWEET-SLEEP. On some still quiet nights he often reminisced about his younger yrs with his brothers in Lake Charles. And always begging on his nephew (James) and the outstanding man he's grown into; taking on the great responsibility of adoption and continues to live his life with selfless acts. Rodney and James worked together for a period of time and boy there was a story for each day. The family waited for the two to come home and share it. They were so detailed and entertaining that they had the family in tears of laughter at the kitchen table. Those two's email should have been Jam and Mac @ hot-mess.com. Those memories belongs to you and sits in the heart for whatever you may need it for at this time. May make one cry, laugh, gives one strength. Seeing we can't make more memories, we hold to what we have; knowing those can't be taken away. My husband could be a fireball at times but he gave so much of his time and energy to so many that we just loved him and ALL the heat that came along. He loved his spend-time with and was a hero to his two grandsons. Rodney was wholeheartedly dedicated to his family, no matter what, he was there. We had a passion together for fishing. There came a weekend that I heard him on the phone with one, stating how he was going fishing on the following day with a buddy. Well after hearing that, my little heart was troubled seeing we were spoiled behind the other. That night I tossed and turned til morning arrived. Sat straight up hearing him in the next room and then I heard him say, " baby you're up, let's get to movin, the fishes won't wait on us". Replying, " I thought you were going with someone else"? Rodney said "baby there's no fishing trip without you. I wouldn't enjoy it, you'll always be my fishing-buddy". There were times on our fishing trips we realized we were lost but Papa knew it before hand and I'll look at him and say, "you don't know where the new fishing hole is Papa, we left at 6:30 and now it's 9:00". And one day God spoke to my heart and said, " what if he wasn't here at all", that I'll never forget. So on our next trip, papa looked over at me and said "baby you know that I'm lost, why aren't you saying anything", and I replied, " well God asked me the question of you not being here at all, so as long as you're here, we'll just be lost together". I'll never forget that look in his eyes as he heard my words, he became so sure and relaxed. Sweetheart you touched so many, were dedicated to the task at hand, trying your hardest to accomplish it to perfection. You performed when others wasn't willing, you gave while others held back. But remembering HIS WORD, you became at peace with it. You were so committed to what you took on, and if you had doubts, you research. Yes, you did give a piece of yourself to many, god I miss you. You was so excited to be moving into your new home here on earth but God had already prepared you His BEST in Heaven, (Heb 9:27) And according to His word, you've made it. God knows the future because He wrote the future, He don't tell us because He wants us to lean on and trust Him at His word. As humans we'd only get in our own way and make a mess, if knowing the future. As lovin parents we want our children to make it and that love we have towards them didn't come with us, it was given to us by the FATHER. As such, our HEAVENLY FATHER is also cheering us on; He wants us to make it also. Again HE knows the future and gave Rodney weeks to prepare. That's what a lovin father does. On the 19th of April, three days before my husband's passing, the nurse asked if he wanted the remote and he replied, "no I don't want to watch tv, I want to read my bible" and to me, "baby your reading glasses stinks, get me better." He was alert, in the SPIRIT and in good spirits.
