David Rodriguez
December 29, 1949 — September 11, 2021
David Rodriguez, 71, was born on December 29, 1949 in Mexico to Candido Rodriguez and Gregoria Benavidez. He entered into eternal rest on September 11, 2021 in Downey, California.
His daughter wrote this with love for him: My father was the epitome of goodness. "My daddy" a humble, hardworking, selfless and kind man will live forever in our hearts. I’m sure this is what any other daughter would say about her father in the same circumstances, but it’s not just my opinion. One day after my father died my mother was surprised by the number of calls she received and the way people expressed themselves about my daddy. They described him as he was, a humble man who helped many people. My dad didn’t talk much but when he did it was to give us a lesson on how to be better people.
Mi padre era el epítome de la bondad. "Mi papi" un hombre humilde, trabajador, desinteresado y amable vivirá para siempre en nuestros corazones. Estoy segura de que esto es lo que cualquier otra hija diría sobre su padre en las mismas circunstancias, pero no es sólo mi opinión. Un día después de que mi padre muriera mi madre se sorprendió por la cantidad de llamadas que recibió y de la manera en que la gente se expresaba de mi papi. Lo describieron tal como fue, un hombre humilde que ayudó a muchas personas. Mi papá no hablaba mucho pero cuando lo hacía era para darnos una leccion en como ser mejores personas.
David is survived by his loving wife, Esperanza Rodriguez, his daughters, Clemencia Rodriguez (and Luis Moreno) and Nancy Rodriguez (and Albert Perez), and his grandchildren, Mallory Perez, Saul Ulloa, Aaron Ramirez, David Ramirez, Lunajane Perez, and Dillon Gutierrez all of Downey, CA. He leaves behind his siblings, Nuevo Progreso of México, Daniel Rodríguez Benavidez of Guadalajara, México, Jesús Rodríguez Benavidez of Aguascalientes, México, Porfiria Rodríguez Benavidez of Utah, Mariaelena Rodríguez Benavidez of Utah, Francisca Rodríguez Benavidez of Juchipila, México, Trinidad Rodríguez Benavidez of Juchipila, México, Elia Rodríguez Benavidez of Utah, Emerita Rodríguez Benavidez of Juchipila, México, and Jorge Rodríguez Benavidez of Utah, as well as numerous nieces and nephews.
David was greeted at Heaven's Gate by his brother, Juan Rodriguez Benavidez. David will be greatly missed by those who knew and loved him.
