Rodney Dale Naff
Rodney Dale Naff, 70, of Roanoke City passed away on July 6, 2026. Rodney was born on December 21, 1955, to Lloyd Glenn Naff and Shirley Beckner Naff. Rodney attended Northside High School, where he beat the state champion in wrestling. Rodney was best known for selling used cars. He was also an avid golfer, holding the course record at Blue Hills Golf Course with a score of 61. He had a great sense of humor. He was there for people when they needed him the most, and he would “give them the shirt off his back.”
He was preceded in death by brother Terrence Eugene Naff of Florida. He is survived by his parents and his brother Todd Naff; his sons, Alen Naff (Whitney), Jeremy Naff (Katie), Darren Naff (Amanda), his nephew Spencer Naff (Holly), and ten grandchildren.
The family would like to thank Kathy Naff, Todd Naff, and Dr. Haider for the hours of care and compassion given to Rodney during his illness. Thanks also to Lotz Funeral Home in Salem for their kindness.
A private family service will be held. In honor of Rodney's memory, the family is creating a commemorative book of photographs and shared memories. If you would like to contribute, please mail or deliver your photos and written memories (with captions, if applicable) to:
Glen Akers Driving Range 1704 Roanoke Blvd. Salem, VA 24153
Friends and family are welcome to visit the driving range to view the memory book and spend time with Rodney's oldest son.
