Manuel G. Rodriguez Trevino

Raised in Monterrey, Manuel was a big fan of the Rayados de Monterrey Soccer team. He was also a musician and had an intense love of music. He began playing the bass guitar at the age of 14 and has owned his main bass guitar since age 17. In addition to being a musician, Manuel was a freestyle dancer, who loved to express his enthusiasm on stage. Another talent Manuel possessed was with the barbecue grille and outdoor cooking. He was the chef of the family who enjoyed his delicious signature items of steak and brisket. Manuel was everybody’s friend and never met a stranger. He was charismatic, had a goofy side and a big sense of humor. Manuel also enjoyed movies and regularly binged on Netflix series.

Cherishing these wonderful memories of Manuel are: his wife, Miriam Rodriguez; daughter and son-in-law, Miriam “Mimi” Rodriguez and Aldo; daughter, Michelle Rodriguez; son and daughter-in-law, Manuel, Jr. and Ruth Rodriguez; and grandchildren, Aldo, Jr. and Kayleen.
