"La Chiva" joins in Heaven his parents; his brother, Frank "Pancho" Rodriguez; and his sisters, Janie "Juana" Robledo and Trini Gonzalez; and many friends who have gone before him.

"Chivo" always welcomed everyone into his life. He knew no strangers and always had a smile for everyone he met. He often offered unsolicited advice and his stories of his past were endless, it seems there was nothing that he had not seen or done. On his final day, he had a beautiful send off with family and friends coming and going to say their goodbyes and I-Love-Yous.

A special thank you to all the caregivers at Centerwell and Girling, also Hospice of San Angelo who helped with his peaceful transition. Thank you also to Dr. Eduardo Gonzalez-Bonilla and Dr. Hubble at Shannon for all of their care. To his special ladies, Jovitia Diaz and Yolanda Rodriguez thank you so much for taking care of Dad and making him feel special and making him laugh.
