It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Rod Rodriguez, a beloved family member, friend, and proud U.S. service member who completed two tours of duty in defense of our nation. His courage, commitment, and selflessness touched countless lives.

As we navigate this sudden loss, we are asking for help to cover funeral and memorial expenses. We want to give Rod the dignified military farewell they earned through years of sacrifice and service.

Your generosity—whether through donating or sharing this page—means more than words can express. Thank you for helping us honor a hero.
