It is with profound sadness that I share the passing of my beloved father, Tomas Rodriguez Jr, who left us on February 2, 2025 at the age of 82. He was born in Ponce, Puerto Rico and resided in Central Islip. Surrounded by his loving family in his final moments, he passed peacefully. He was a man of immense humor and wisdom. His passion for singing, guitar playing, drawing, painting and his unwavering spirit will forever be remembered. He is survived by his son Tomas Rodriguez III and his grandchildren Michael, Kayla and Alicia. They will continue to honor his legacy by living their lives to the fullest with his love in their hearts. We will cherish every moment spent with him for all the days to come. We welcome all who knew him to join us in celebrating the life of a man who was loved deeply and will be greatly missed.
