Jessica Rodriguez

With my heart full of gratitude and sorrow I announce the passing of my (Sweetheart) daughter.

Jessica Rodriguez, beloved daughter, granddaughter, niece, cousin, partner, and friend, passed away unexpectedly on October 8, 2026, at 8:59 am.

Born on Saturday, August 8, 1987, at 4:28 pm. “La Guera” as some would call her when was little.

She had a beautiful soul and big dimples when she smiled. She was kind and encouraging. She loved to joke around. Growing up, she loved to read and even took up running.

She is survived by her mother Cindy Jacinto, her partner of many years, Victor Padilla, her two dogs Estrella and Mia, maternal and paternal grandparents, aunts, uncles, and many cousins who loved her dearly. She was preceded in death by her father Manuel Rodriguez on July 10, 2012.

I know that she is with her beloved Nana Nellie, whom she had special relationship with.

She will be remembered as the one who listened, encouraged and made us laugh.

Funeral Services will be conducted on Thursday, November 12, 2026, at Ave Maria Memorial Chappel, 609 Main St, Watsonville, CA 95076 5 pm - 8 pm.
