HURON – Blair and Verna Rodman taught their children the importance of lending a helping hand whenever they could.
It was in their DNA, and now it’s in the makeup of Mike and Greg Rodman and Martie Stulken.
“Particularly my mother,” Mike of Rapid City said. “She was always one to anonymously give donations when there was somebody in need, somebody ill or if somebody got hurt, or a family where some kind of a tragedy happened.”
Frank Rodman, best known by his middle name, Blair, died 15 years ago. Verna passed away in May.
Mike, Martie of Aurora, and Greg of Draper, Utah, are donating the proceeds from an online auction of their folks’ 1992 and 1997 Lincoln Town Cars to the Huron Community Foundation.
The well-cared for cars are on display in the Advance Auto Parts parking lot on Dakota Avenue South in Huron.
Huron auctioneer Ben Meyer is donating his services and Prostrollo Motors is detailing the cars at no cost.
