It is with great sorrow that we share the news that Clelia Rodriguez passed away at home with her family on October 20, 2025 at age 57 after an extended battle with cancer. Clelia was a beloved mother, grandmother, and loving caregiver to the many, many children she helped raise during their formative years in her work as a childcare provider. Clelia's warm and loving nature nurtured our family and many others.

The family is not holding a funeral in accordance with Clelia's wishes to be remembered as she was in health. However, Clelia's family would appreciate any support from those who knew and loved her as they make the final arrangements in the coming days and weeks. Funds will go to Clelia's daughter Blanca for immediate expenses and support for the family.
