Carmen Rodriguez Obituary
Born on November 20, 1940, to Pablo Sr. and Clotilde Diaz in Uvalde, Texas. Carmen passed away peacefully on December 30, 2024, surrounded by many loved ones. She was a one of kind woman whose spirit and heart left an everlasting mark on everyone who knew her.
A devoted spouse, loving mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and a true force of nature. Carmen was known for her fiery spirit, quick wit and boundless love. Yet her warmth and kindness always shone through. She is survived by her husband, Goyo of 67 years. Their profound bond was a testament of true devotion to one another. She took pride in her six sons and one daughter. Her grandchildren were her pride and joy, and she was their greatest cheerleader. Her love for her family was a reflection for her deep and abiding faith, which guided her through life’s challenges and joys. Her passions included loving others wholeheartedly and she loved to feed all who entered her home. Every Saturday you could arrive at her house to a freshly baked cake. Sunday menu always included her famous chicken and rice, beans and chicharros.
