Honor Sandra Rodriguez: A Final Rest

Hello, we would like to take a moment to tell you about our mother, Sandra Rodriguez. Sadly, you are meeting her this way rather than experiencing her presence firsthand. Before sharing her story, we want to explain why we have gathered you here.

Our mother went into cardiac arrest on December 3rd and was in critical condition for 113 hours, fighting her toughest battle. On December 6th, God called our mother home, and she returned to where she was meant to be.

There are no words to fully express how kind, loving, caring, and compassionate our mom was. She was the most selfless woman you would have had the pleasure of knowing. She never went a day without putting someone else above herself, always doing and giving what she could, even when she couldn’t. Whether it was helping out with someone’s kids, giving what she could, or simply watching your drink when you went to the bathroom, she would drop everything to be there for whoever needed her.

My siblings and I stand here today, asking for your help to put our mom first and give her the beautiful final rest she deserves. She is not asking; we are. All we want is to give her the care she gave us, to the fullest of our ability. We understand it's the holidays, the economy is challenging, and you have your own lives and families to support. But, whatever you can give or spare, or even just sharing this message, will help us give our mother, Sandra Rodriguez, the honor of being put first one last time.
