Rafael served in the United States Marine Corp, worked as a Hosted Phone Coordinator with EPB of Chattanooga, and was a member of Rising Fawn Baptist Church. Outside of work, Rafael found joy in spending time with his family, traveling, cooking new recipes, and adventuring to new restaurants.
He is survived by his wife, Danielle Renteria; his two children, Rafael Enzo Renteria (8) and Santiago Arlo Renteria (6); his parents Rafael Renteria and Maria Renteria; and his brothers, Michael Carmona and Roberto Renteria.
His family is hosting a celebration of his life at Rising Fawn Baptist Church on Thursday, March 20, 2025, at 6pm. Online condolences may be shared at ryanfuneralhome.net.
In lieu of flowers, we ask a donation to be made in his memory to Friends of the Troops at www.friendsofthetroops.org.
Arrangements are entrusted to Ryan Funeral Home & Crematory, Trenton, GA.

I never met Rafael, I spoke to him a couple times at work. My heart and prayers go out to his family during this difficult time. I wanted to share that I have only ever heard some of the most amazing, kind, and beautiful words and fond memories shared by his long time coworkers at EPB. He will be remembered and his memory and legacy will live on.
