Luis is survived by his beautiful wife, Dora “Ruby” Rodriguez, his loving daughters Maggie Mae and Michelle Mae, su mama hermosa Rosa Rodriguez, 1 brother, Cuauhtemoc, and 3 sisters, Guadalupe, Paloma and Xochitl who cared for their “big” brother. Luis impacted the lives of several nieces and nephews who he loved dearly. He has a noble grandson, Daniel Luis, who cherished his time with his “Grandpa”. Luis is also loved and respected by his son-in-law Mr. Magdiel. “Poorboy” always had a way to make people laugh and feel comfortable. He leaves a legacy of honesty, generosity, strong work ethic, and an emphasis on a good education. As a young man, Luis prided himself in earning his Ph.D in Common Sense which has taken him far beyond the realms of a classroom. He is known for his passion for music of many genres. And those who were privileged to know Poorboy will have songs by which to keep his memory and legacy alive.
