Mario A. Rodriguez made his way to our heavenly father on January 6, 2021.

Mario was born in Blythe, California on December 2nd, 1976 to his parents Rosalie Prieto (Jamie Prieto) and Mario Rodriguez. Mario was a brother to Ana Paterson, Bri Prieto, Monica Cano, and Marie Rodriguez. In 1998 Mario married Canny Rodriguez and together they had four beautiful daughters Gisselle, Viviana, Alexis, and Nia Rodriguez. He was also an amazing Tata to Trinity Selley Thompson/Rodriguez and Victor Mario Duenaz/Rodriguez.

Mario was a very loving, strong, and helpful man. He loved spending time with his family, having BBQs, and lighting up fireworks any day of the year.

Mario was very involved with the community, he volunteered at the snack shack every year for Blythe Little league. He was also a member of the United Dreams Car Club. Mario often enjoyed attending and showing his lowrider bikes at car shows. Another thing he loved to do was to be involved with the Bazaar at the St. John of Arc Catholic Church.

We will all truly miss Mario's heartwarming smile and bear hugs. May we meet again.

Mario's viewing will be Sunday, January 24th at Frye Chapel from 5-8pm, with Rosary at 7pm. Mass will be held on Monday, January 25th at St John of Arc Catholic Church at 10:00am with burial services following at Palo Verde Cemetery.
