Mr. Rodney Gene Hagen passed away on September 14, 2018 in Keller, Texas after complications from rheumatoid arthritis. He was 76 years of age.
Rodney was born on July 11, 1942 in Fieldon, Illinois to Ernest Henry Hagen and Mary Margaret Hagen. He was preceded in death by his parents and his brother, Francis Hagen. He is survived by his wife Sharon Hagen, and two daughters Regina Ervin and Lisa Hagen, as well as his son in law Bill Ervin and great grandchildren.
Rodney is a retired Master Sergeant of the United States Air Force. He obtained an MBA from McMurry University, Abilene, Texas in 1985. He retired as an aircraft mechanic from American Eagle, and is a dedicated member of the Masonic Lodge #1084, Keller, Texas.
If you knew Rodney he was a jack-of-all-trades, and he never knew a stranger. He was an avid gun collector, hunter, and scuba diver. He loved fast cars, playing guitar, and his most loved band was Pink Floyd.
He was always known to be stern, but behind that tough surface was a soft hearted man who was always there for his family.
Until we meet again some sunny day.
