On February 13, 2019, our mother and grandmother, Aurora Rodriguez, peacefully and serenely left us to begin her new and beautiful journey to Heaven with our Lord.

Mom led a full life in an independent, outspoken, and free spirit manner unique to her.  We are happy for our mother that her prayer to be called home to be with Augie and other loved ones has been answered.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Augustin Martinez, her son in law, Roberto Valdez; and her granddaughter, Theresa Barrera.

Mom is survived by her daughters, Gloria Valdez and Elizabeth Martinez; granddaughters, Patricia (Jeff) Greenwell and Katherine (Cres) Castillo; great grandchildren, Jacob, Nathan, and Garrett Greenwell, Marisa, Tomas, and Andres Barrera, Alazayai, Sofia, Jordan, Aurora, Eliza, Matthew and Mario Castillo; and extended family members.
