Esther W. Rodriguez

Esther W. Rodriguez, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, passed away peacefully at home under hospice care on May 4, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family.

She is survived by her devoted husband of 63 years, Luis Rodriguez, with whom she shared a lifetime of love, partnership, and cherished 

memories, as well as her children, who were a constant source of pride and love to her. She also leaves behind many beloved grandchildren and great-grandchildren, each of whom brought her endless joy.

With the sound of every merengue that plays, we will remember her dancing—her heels click-clacking in time with the rhythm, as if the music itself lived in her steps. Her spirit was full of life, and her joy filled and brightened every room she entered.

She was known for her warmth and the way she brought people close, often calling out “Ven aquí”—“come here”—a phrase her family knew meant she was serious, but always rooted in love, guidance, and care.

Esther will be remembered for her strength, her joy, and the deep love she shared with all who knew her.

Her presence will be deeply missed, but her memory will live on in the hearts of her family forever.
