Who She Was
Her Story
Arlena Leonor Rodriguez was born on November 7, 1996 to my sister Anita Gonzales & Jose Rodriguez. She had an older brother Richard Carlos Rodriguez, and those two were inseparable. They fought just like any brother and sister, but at the end of the day they were each other’s world. They both struggled with the loss of their mother both at a young age, and they were never the same after that, but they always had each other. Tragically Richard was taken from her and us & became our Angel on 11/20/2011. Then and there I knew she felt alone even with all the love, family and support around her. Yesterday our hearts and world was ripped apart with the news that Arlena was taken from us so suddenly.
She had just turned 24 recently and was 7 months pregnant with her son. Our family is kindly asking for donations to help us lay her in her final resting place with her baby boy and brother.
