Obituary
Rainer Wesley Rouse, 64, born August 8, 1959 in Jacksonville, Florida to Renate S. Rouse and James S. Rouse, passed away on October 23, 2023. He was preceded in death by both parents and his stepfather, Daniel Hadden, whom he loved as a father. After graduating from Terry Parker High School in 1977, he spent his 45 year-long career with S&P USA Ventilation Systems LLC, a Jacksonville based manufacturing firm. His retirement years were a testament to his boundless enthusiasm for the furry, funny, four-legged friend- the loyal Labrador Retriever. He gave endless amounts of love to the dogs he personally fostered over the years, and volunteered countless hours with Labrador Retriever Rescue of Florida, eventually serving as Operations Chair on the Board of Directors for the group. He left an indelible mark on the hearts of many, both human and canine, and he will be dearly missed.
Special thanks to Haven Hospice of Northeast Florida for the compassion and care they provided during Rainer's final days.
A service will be held on Friday, November 17 at 2:00 pm at Arlington Park Cemetery, 6920 Lone Star Road, Jacksonville FL 3211. In lieu of flowers, please send memorial contributions to Labrador Retriever Rescue of Florida, https://lrrof.org/in-memory-or-honor-donation/
