Nicole Marie "Nicky" Rodriguez (née Najera) passed away on Friday, July 3rd, 2020 at the age of 38 in her home in Houston, Texas. Nicole was born on January 12, 1982 to loving parents, Martin Louis and Yolanda Garcia Najera in Houston, Texas.

Nicole was a member of St. Christopher Catholic Church. She graduated from the High School for Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice. Her desire for working in the law enforcement field continued after graduation when she began working for the Houston Police Department, working there for 18 years as a senior office assistant. She enjoyed her job, made many friends there, and worked under several police chiefs, the most recent being Chief Lopez. Nicole was a lover of animals and was a devoted dog-mom to her beloved Dachshund, Tigger, who sadly passed away shortly after her death.

She married adoring husband, Juan Manuel Rodriguez, on October 13, 2017.

She is survived by her parents, husband, and siblings (John Martin Najera and Aaron Louis Najera); nephew Athan Najera; uncle, Genaro Garcia, Jr. and his wife, Rose, her aunt, Joann Martinez; sisters-in-law, Angie Ledezma and her daughter, Brittany; Sally Rodriguez; Yolanda Sanchez and her husband, Luis Sanchez and their son, Luis Sanchez, III; and her best friend and co-worker, Leslie Rios.

Nicole had a kind and loving heart. She will be greatly missed. Arrangements have been entrusted to Claire Brothers Funeral Home, 7901 Hillcroft Street, Houston, Texas 77081.
