Obituary published on Legacy.com by Lux Funeral Home & Cremation Services on Aug. 22, 2025.
With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Margarita Rodriguez Cabello on August 21, 2025, at the age of 78. She was a bright, loving soul whose warmth, kindness, and humor left a lasting impression on everyone who knew her.

Margarita lived her life with joy and generosity. Always kind-hearted and full of life, she had a nickname for everyone and could light up any room with her laughter. She loved music and dancing, and her joyful spirit was felt by all who shared in those moments with her. Always willing to help anyone in need, her compassion touched countless lives, and she leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and strength.

She was preceded in death by her beloved son, Joe Ray Saldana, and is now reunited with him in peace.

Margarita is survived by her loving children, David Saldana and Tracey Cabello; her cherished grandchildren, David Saldana III, Joe Perez, Charles Whittington, Reyven Saldana, and Kacey Cabello; and her beautiful great-granddaughter, Alyanah Whittington, who brought her endless joy.

She was the daughter of the late Juan P. Rodriguez and Erlinda S. Rodriguez. She is also survived by her brothers Johnny Rodriguez and Rudy Rodriguez, her sister Connie Perez, and numerous nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her brothers Frank Rodriguez and Pedro Rodriguez, and her sisters Elisa Chapa and Maria Gonzales

Margarita will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her, but her spirit lives on in the hearts of her family and friends. Her laughter, love, music, and dancing will never be forgotten.
