Maria was born in Arroyo, Puerto Rico, daughter of the late Ramon Gonzalez and Carmen Rodriguez and she is also predeceased by a son, Wendell Rodriguez who died in 2016.
Before moving to Worcester from Puerto Rico she worked for many years as a cafeteria worker. Family was at the heart of everything Maria did. She was always cooking and could often be found making meals for her family and neighbors for no reason other than just being nice to others. Maria enjoyed listening to music, playing cards and bingo, but she was the happiest when she was with her family.
