Born on November 21, 1941, in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, Rolando was the beloved son of Edmundo Bejarano Arias and Sara Ribera Leigue. Rolando's journey led him to the United States, where he became a citizen, embraced his new home and became an active member of St. Agnes Catholic Church. His faith was a guiding light in his life, providing him with strength and community. A man of simple joys, Rolando found pleasure in the quiet moments spent playing solitaire, a reflection of his thoughtful and contemplative spirit, he loved to hunt and fish as well. He had a passion for cooking and baking, often filling his home with the delightful aromas of his culinary creations. His kitchen was a gathering place for family and friends, where love was shared through both food and laughter. Rolando is survived by his cherished children, Rolando, Tatiana, and Alejandra, who will carry on his legacy of love and kindness.
