1 of the best linemen I had blocking for us. Will miss you, Jose.
Just a great person to be around.
A lot of great and fond memories with Jose through out our 4 years at St John’s Cathedral.
He was always willing to help you if you needed it.
You will be missed my friend. Until we meet again.
To the family of Jose Rodriguez, I am deeply saddened by Jose’s passing. When I started at NAPA in 1997, He was the first guy to greet me. He became my mentor, colleague, a leader and a great Friend. I never knew anybody that would work harder and also smarter through our may NAPA tasks. Although we both retired and lost touch with each other, I will think of Him of Him fondly and remember all the good times we had together. Rest in Peace Jose, till we meet again!

We at the ADRC of Jefferson County were deeply saddened to hear of Jose’s passing. He was a kind, caring, and wonderful person who touched the lives of so many. His warm smile and friendly nature made a lasting impact, and he will be greatly missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time.
I didn’t know Jose as well as I know his wife, Mary Kay. Mary Kay and I worked together for many years and have remained good friends. I was fortunate to have talked with Jose when Mary Kay, Jose, and my friend, Lou, had brunch with them recently at the Broadway Diner in Baraboo. What a gift that was as we were able to talk with him one last time. He will be missed.
