Carlos Rodriguez

November 02, 1949 – June 28, 2022

In Loving Memory of Carlos Rodriguez, who died peacefully on June 28, 2022

Carlos was born in 1949 in Bayamon, Puerto Rico and raised in Cataño by his mother Herminia Rivera, and his father, Luis Rodriguez. He was one of 12 children. Carlos moved to the United States in 1969. Within three years’ time, Carlos met and married his wife, Carmen Irene Rodriguez (“Iris”), in Bristol, Pa.  They created a life together with their three children. 

Carlos was a hard worker and dedicated himself to provide for his family. He worked as a welder for 36 years at the same location before his retirement in 2020. Carlos was also devoted to church, attending St. Marks in Bristol Borough throughout his marriage. He extended his hard work ethic beyond family and occupation by volunteering his time to help his congregation serve the local community. Of all the ways he contributed, bringing the eucharist to members unable to attend speaks the most to his giving and kind nature.

He is survived by his wife Carmen Irene Rodriguez; children Carlos Rodriguez, Jr., Maribel Rodriguez (Alejandro), and Orlando Rodriguez, and 6 grandchildren, 3 great grandchildren, and many beloved nieces and nephews.

Family and friends are invited to gather Wednesday evening July 6th, 2022, from 6 - 8 pm at the Galzerano Funeral Home, 430 Radcliffe Street, Bristol, PA 19007 and Thursday morning from 9 - 10:30 am at St. Mark Church, 1025 Radcliffe Street in Bristol. Funeral Mass will begin at 10:30 am. Interment will follow at Bristol Cemetery.
