A note from Darren Stoltenberg, brother of Rodney:

Finishing the Final Lap: A Tribute to My Brother, Rodney Stoltenberg, classic car enthusiast

The second to last time I saw my brother Rodney was around Easter. He was all hot to trot on getting his shouse built. I told him he was nuts, but he was so excited about the design. He and I had messaged back and forth for months working on it. I even made a $100 bet with him that he wouldn't be living in it by December 1st. He took that bet, looking me in the eye and saying, "I bet you 100 bucks I'll be in by the end of August." I told him no way. Some of the building materials were delivered to his lot the day before he passed. He was shooting for the end of the month, all right.
