Born July 26, 1963, in Texas City, Mr. Rodriguez was a lifelong resident of Santa Fe. Known for a kind heart, steady hands, and love for family, Felipe lived a life centered around hard work, faith, and the simple moments that brought people together. As a proud member of IUOE Local #450, he took great pride in his work and the friendships built along the way.

Outside of work, some of his happiest times were spent fishing, tending the garden, riding bikes, and firing up the barbecue surrounded by family and friends. Felipe had a way of making people feel welcome, whether through a shared meal, a laugh, or simply spending time together.
