It is with deep love and sorrow that we announce the passing of Manuel Rodriguez, who left us peacefully in his sleep on October 31, 2025, at the age of 83.
Manuel lived a life filled with dedication, compassion, and quiet strength. He will be remembered as a devoted husband, loving father, cherished grandfather, and proud great-grandfather. His wisdom, kindness, and gentle humor touched the hearts of all who knew him.
He is survived by his beloved children: Manuel Rodriguez, Maritza Nicot (husband Evaldo Nicot), and Bernard Rodriguez. He was a proud grandfather to Victor Manuel Rodriguez, Nicholas Rodriguez, Rachael Rodriguez (Nolasco), Evaldo Mariano Nicot (wife Anne Nicot), Maria Nicot, and Winter Nicollette Rodriguez. His legacy continues through his adored great-grandchildren: Camila Rodriguez, Valentina Rodriguez, Thalia Rodriguez Amari Rodriguez, Lucas Rodriguez, Gianna Nolasco-Rodriguez, Matthew Nolasco-Rodriguez, Rosario Nicot, Alonso Nicot, and Katalia Nicot, as well as many other dear family members and friends.
Manuel now joins his beloved late wife at Hollywood Garden Memorial, where their love and memory will live on together. His family takes comfort knowing that they are once again reunited.
A dignified cremation will be arranged by Fred Hunters Funeral Home, and his ashes will be placed alongside his wife so that family and loved ones may visit and honor their memory for generations to come.
Manuel’s life will forever be celebrated through the love of his family and the many lives he touched.
