Jerry Rodarte Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Weeks' Funeral Homes - Buckley on Jan. 26, 2024.
In loving memory of Jerry Noel Rodarte, Sr., born on June 1, 1956, in Yelm, Washington, to Joseph Leon Rodarte and Mary Basilia Gallegos Rodarte. Jerry's life was a testament to the bonds of family, love, and resilience. He departed from this world on January 18, 2024, in Tacoma, Washington.
Jerry is preceded in death by parents, Joseph Rodarte and Mary Rodarte, his brothers and sisters: Joseph L. Rodarte, Erlinda Rodarte, Evangeline Daniels, Estella Carter, Robert Rodarte, Sr., Frank Rodarte, Sr., Roger Rodarte, Bernice Dodge, Mary Emery, Shirley Sanchez, Cheryl Jimenez, and Michael Rodarte. The loss of his great-granddaughter Myla Rodarte added to the weight of sorrow.
He is survived by his wife Edna Rodarte of Enumclaw, his children Jerry and April Rodarte of Orting, Mark and Leonie Rodarte of Steilacoom, and Amanda and Julian Sandoval of Bonney Lake. His siblings, James Rodarte of San Antonio, Texas, Virginia Johnson of Auburn, Betty Auxier of Jackson, Ohio, and David Rodarte, Sr. of Orting, continue to hold his memory close. Jerry's legacy extends through 14 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren.
In this time of grief, may Jerry's family find strength in the love they shared and solace in the memories that endure. May he rest in eternal peace, and may his spirit live on in the hearts of those who knew and loved him.
