Forever in our hearts.
Paul Ricardo Rodriguez passed away peacefully in his home on 9/2/2020 at the age of 85. He was born in 1935 in Nambe, NM. Paul served in the United States Army, cherishing his experience abroad but longing for his home in Nambe, NM. He was a skilled carpenter and has left a trace of his craftsmanship all across Northern New Mexico and in his childhood home where he lived out his years. Paul’s hobbies and interests were broad, from music to cards to bird-watching, and brought him much joy, but they also brought many wonderful people into his life. Paul had a soft spot in his heart for animals, fostering many and extending his generosity to all wild creatures. He will be dearly missed.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Eduardo and Enriqueta Rodriguez; his wife Annabelle Montoya Rodriguez; his son, Robert Rodriguez; in-laws Gilbert and Lena Montoya, Arabelle Esco, Manuel and Marie “Tibbie” Ramirez; Uncles Lorenzo, Esperanza, Adrian, Cornelio, Eloy, Flaviano, Laurel, Ramon and Librado Herrera. Paul is survived by his son Raul Rodriguez (Russella); daughters Deborah Los (Mike) and Marissa Rodriguez (Ganeson Gopala); grandchildren Aldeboran Rodriguez-Ruckel (Chris), Shade Rodriguez, Delphia and Oriana Rodriguez de Serna; Autumn and Andrew Los. He is also survived by his Uncle David Herrera (Josephine), and many cousins and friends.
A private ceremony for family will be held at 4:30 at Rivera Famly Funeral Home of Espanola Wednesday, September 9, 2020 followed by The Rosary at the same location. The Rosary will be prayed at 6:00 p.m. A Funeral Mass will be held 10:00 am on Thursday, September 10, 2020 at Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe del Valle de Pojoaque with burial to follow at 2:00 pm at Santa Fe National Cemetery.

Paul was a avid bird watcher and feeder, a storyteller, and a sweet man. While I worked with him I saw a family who cared about their father deeply, and he had many stories to tell about his beloved children. My sincere condolences to you all.

Raul, Deborah, Marissa, and family,
We are so sorry for the loss of your kind father! Paul had a beautiful heart and loved all living creatures. He was always there for my Mom and Dad. They would enjoy a good cup of coffee, and also enjoy a good game of poker. I have so many fond memories of your Dad. I know he was very proud of all of you, including his grandchildren. Take comfort in knowing he is with your Mom and Robert, and is no longer in pain. God bless you all!
