Rest in peace.

Rod Herndon reportedly died of a heart attack.
According to police, a passerby noticed Herndon lying under the scoreboard behind the team room near the west end of the retaining wall at the south end of the field but thought he was resting. “After approximately 30 minutes, the person decided to check on the subject after noticing the body had not changed positions,” the officer wrote.

According to several obituaries about Herndon, he was a Marine who served in Vietnam, was married to Elaine Herndon for 33 years, and had one son, Andrew, who is a police officer in New Mexico. Services were held for him this week, and he will be interred in the San Joaquin National Cemetery
