Rodney L. Mullen, 60, of Rockford, passed away peacefully in his home on October 3, 2024. He was born on May 31, 1964, in Rockford; the son of Everett Jr., and Barbara (Frank) Mullen. Rodney worked as a machinist and a mechanic over the years. He loved to take things apart and fix them. His happy place was tinkering in his garage and shopping at Harbor Freight. He was an avid poker player and enjoyed playing slots at area slot places and casinos. He was also a fisherman and loved to watch the drag races in Byron. His nicknames were “Hot Rod” and “Rockin’ Rodney”. And last, but not least, he enjoyed drinking a “cold one”.
