In memory of Marcelino Rodriguez

Donation protected
On Thursday, January 14th, 2021, Marcelino Rodriguez, loving husband and father of three children, passed away at the age of 81. Marcelino was born on January 16, 1939, in San Nicolas, Cuba to Benigna and Wenselao. He was a skilled craftsman who worked with precision and creativity.  He married his one true love, Onilda, in 1965 and together they achieved their dream of moving to America where they lovingly raised their three children, Luis, Marilin, and David in Elizabeth, NJ.

Marcelino’s true passion was his family. Every year he counted down the days until summer so that he could man the barbeque surrounded by his loved ones, his doves, and his towering tomato plants. He adored his grandchildren and truly believed that one bowl of ice cream was never enough. He will be best remembered for his dedication to his family, strong will, and loving nature.

Marcelino was preceded in death by his parents Benigna and Wenselao. He is survived by his wife Onilda, his three children, Luis, Marilin, and David, his siblings Maria, Martico, Mercedes, and Juana, his 9 grandchildren, Krystin, Maylin, Yanelis, Kaylee, Rose, Ryan, Nina, David, and Noah, and several nieces and nephews.  

A viewing will be held on Wednesday, January 20th, 2021 from 9:00 a.m. to 11 a.m. at Krowicki McCracken Funeral Home, located at 2124 E St Georges Avenue in Linden, NJ 07036.  The viewing will be immediately followed by the funeral service at 11:00 a.m., at  Rosedale Cemetery, located at 350 E. Linden Avenue, Linden, NJ 07036. 

In lieu of flowers, the family would appreciate donations to be made in Marcelino’s honor to ensure that the funeral pays tribute to his memory.
