Maria Rodriguez Obituary
She was an excellent mother, wife, grandmother, sister and friend. Her life was dedicated to her family, friends, and the Lord. Loving, happy, friendly, hardworking, faithful, nice, pleasant and joyful are not enough to describe how we truly feel about her. A great person all the way around. Although we will miss her dearly, she is off to a better place.
She was a native of Rio Grande City and had retired from Southwestern Bell Telephone after 26 years of service. She was preceded in death by her husband, Eliu Rodriguez, her parents, Consuelo & Adan Mayorga, sister, Ernestina Mayorga and by a brother, Jacobo Mayorga.
She is survived by two sons, Roberto Eliu (Maria Del Rosario) Rodriguez of Dallas & Samuel Oscar (Patricia) Rodriguez of Fort Worth, one daughter, Norma Iris Rodriguez of Richardson, six grandchildren, one brother, Gustavo Mayorga and eight sisters, Maria Teresa Mayorga, Micaela Elizondo, Maria Elfida Garcia, Corina Vela, San Juana Saenz, Irene Conejo, Maria Reina Espinoza & Yolanda Espinoza.

We knew her as Maggie. In addition to the many wonderful things she was to her family Maggie also gave her time to her community. She was a volunteer tax counselor at the McAllen Library. She was loved by all her fellow counselors and will be sorely missed.
God bless you Maggie. And may you rest in peace
