June 23, 1938 — August 12, 2026

In loving memory of Victor Manny Salinas-Rodriguez, who peacefully departed this world on August 12, 2026, surrounded by his beloved family after a long illness. Born on June 23, 1938, in the picturesque city of Toluca, Mexico, Victor was the cherished son of Stephanie Melissa Rodriguez. Throughout his life, he was a beacon of love and strength, leaving behind a legacy that will be treasured by all who knew him. Victor’s life was a tapestry of profound love, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to his family. At the heart of his world was his enduring marriage to his beloved wife, Gloria Salinas-Rodriguez. Their partnership was a testament to the strength and guidance they provided each other, serving as both an anchor and a compass throughout their shared journey. Together, they built a family filled with love and laughter, raising two wonderful children, Ivan and Stephanie Rodriguez. Victor was also a proud grandfather to five grandchildren, who brought immense joy and fulfillment to his life. Beyond his family, Victor found solace and joy in two passions that defined much of his leisure time: the gentle art of fishing and the exhilarating hum of a finely-tuned engine. Whether he was casting a line into serene waters or navigating a winding road, Victor’s soul was at peace in these moments of quiet reflection and adventure. A memorial service to celebrate Victor’s remarkable life will be held on August 30, 2026, at 4:00 PM at 4300 Holt Blvd, Montclair, CA 91763. Family and friends will gather to honor his memory before his ashes are taken to Mexico, a place that held a special place in his heart. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in Victor’s memory to a charity of your choice, a gesture that would honor his generous spirit and love for helping others. Victor Manny Salinas-Rodriguez’s gentle spirit, boundless love, and enduring legacy will live on in the hearts of all who knew him. He will be deeply missed but forever remembered with love and admiration.
