Obituary of Jorge H. Rodriguez

Please share a memory of Jorge to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.

Our beloved husband, father, brother, uncle and friend passed away on Saturday, November 11, 2017 at AtlantiCare Medical Center, Mainland Campus in Pomona, New Jersey.

Jorge Hiram Rodriguez was born in Isabela, Puerto Rico on August 11, 1960 and he was the fifth child born to the late Felipe Rodriguez and Maria Quinones Rodriguez.

During Jorge’s adolescent years, he attended elementary and high school in his hometown in Puerto Rico. At an early age Jorge demonstrated his ability to work creatively with his hands and always enjoyed renovating homes and fixing equipment.

In 1980 Jorge relocated to New Jersey to pursue a better life and found gainful employment in a number of local industries. It was in 1980 that Jorge began working at Caesar’s Boardwalk Regency Hotel and Casino, and it was there that he met the love of his life, Sandy.

Jorge and Sandy lived in Egg Harbor Township, were a couple for 34 years and were blessed with two wonderful sons, Devin and Shannen.

Jorge was a die-hard New England Patriots fan, and an avid reader.  Jorge adored his family and friends and routinely loved to play practical jokes on everyone.  He also looked forward to cooking his favorite Spanish dishes for holidays and other special events.

Jorge is predeceased in death by his parents; and his stepmother, Gloria Cruz Rodriguez. Jorge leaves his cherished memory to his devoted wife Sandy; his two sons Devin (Cathy) and Shannen; nine siblings; Felipe ‘Papo’; Jose ‘Luis’ (Carmen); Jose ‘Angel’; Reinaldo ‘Ray’ (Wilma); Francisco ‘Francy’; Wilfredo ‘Willie’; Lourdes ‘Lula’; Antonio ‘Tony’ and Yolanda (Cesar) and a host of uncles; aunts; cousins; friends; including his very close friend Michael Reid and his special canine baby, Sophie.

Jorge’s family will honor his request to keep his funeral arrangements private.
