Our precious husband, father, son, brother, and uncle William (Billy) Rodriguez has joined our Heavenly Father peacefully at his home on November 2, 2019 at the age of 70.
Billy grew up in Bisbee, AZ where he helped his parents run a ranch. In his high school years, he was noted as a great athlete. Billy rode bareback horses and traveled the rodeo circuit right after high school. He earned a baseball scholarship to go to Cochise College. After college he moved to Silver City, NM where he was hired with TNMP/PNM as a lineman and retired in 2015 after 40+ years of service. He was an extremely hard-working man for all his life and was a wonderful provider for his family. He had a great love for many things which included fishing, camping, and hunting with family and friends. His passion was coaching girls’ softball at Silver High School where he taught and mentored many. His specialty was pitching. He made many lifelong friends along the way.
He was preceded in death by his father, Joe Rodriguez. He is survived by the love of his life Leslie Rodriguez for more than 23 years. Five children, Vanessa Rodriguez, Shawna Rodriguez and her partner Aaron Roebuck, Lucas Rodriguez and his wife Geneva, Lindsey Rodriguez and Nicholas Rodriguez; Seven grandchildren, Dalton, Sierra, Race and Trinity Roebuck; Ilaria, Raylind, Royce and Renzo Rodriguez; his mother, Emma Schafer; four brothers, Ricky, Joseph and Chester Rodriguez, Johnny Rodriguez and wife Lynn; one sister, Tina Taylor and her husband Moses; many uncles, aunts, nieces, nephews, cousins and many friends. He loved his family with his whole heart, and they were everything to him. He will be terribly missed by all; but never forgotten.
Memorial Service will be celebrated on Saturday, November 9th at 10am at Terrazas Funeral Chapels with Pastor Joseph Gros officiating. Cremation will take place at Terrazas Crematory. Arrangements are with Terrazas Funeral Chapels and Crematory “Trusted care for the ones you love” ~ 575-537-0777. To send condolences, visit www.terrazasfuneralchapel.com.
