Angelica Maria "Kekah" Rodriquez, daughter of Noe & Maria De Jesus Rodriquez, survived by brother, Adrian Noe Rodriquez, nephew, Santiago Adrian Rodriquez, and niece, Mariah Andrea Rodriquez, was born in Santa Clara on February 17, 1979 and passed away in San Jose on December 23, 2014 at the age of 35. She will be dearly missed by all of those who knew and loved her.

Angelica enjoyed the simple things in life and would often say she was easily amused. Making wishes on dandelions, shaking a snow globe, playing video games and watching football were some of her favorite activities. She loved with all of her heart and no matter what relationship she had with someone – be it family, friend, or more, she gave her all and then some. She was proud of her heritage and faith, and always stayed true to who she was. Her loyalty and strength were qualities she sought out in others and, by example, she helped those around her find that in themselves. She was a teacher at heart, both personally and professionally, and the lessons she has taught will stay with us forever.

May God grant her peace and may she rest among the angels who have protected her through all of her days.

A Funeral Mass will be held at 10am on Saturday, January 3 at Church of the Ascension, 12033 Miller Ave, Saratoga.

Frank greeted the world on February 4, 1938 in San Jose, California. Both of his parents were from Northern Italy, from the area of Genoa. Frank, a devoted husband to Charlene, passed away on October 7, with his loving wife of 54 years at his side until the very end.

He served in the army during the Vietnam era as a military policeman, and received an honorary discharge with commendation in sharp shooting.

During his earlier years he was involved in the business of the San Jose Scavenger Company initiated through the effort of his father and maternal grandfather who were instrumental in starting this business. He was the youngest member on the board of directors and held up as a leader. This same perception of his personality was expressed throughout his life.

Frank’s interests included anything to do with cars, also restored cars, and cars displayed at Italian festivals. Having an inherited gene for love of Mediterranean food, Italian and Greek Festivals were sought out. He loved lamb shanks! He was known as Mr. Garden of Eden for his lush and varied garden species, lawns and flowers and his hand manicuring style of maintenance.

Politics, finance, current events and travel were other special interests. Working as a team of pilot and co-pilot, and at times taking tours, Charlene and Frank traveled extensively in all of Europe, British Isles, Scandinavia, Africa, Greece, Israel, China, and parts of the U.S. During his retirement from Santa Clara County GSA, traveling included pilgrimages.

Frank’s fluent Italian added additional pleasures in Italy, Spain, and Portugal and his ability to adapt and knowing what to do in any circumstance or emergency made their travels possible, safe, and enriched their lives.

Along with being courageous, he also possessed a profound sense of justice; a man of integrity, who stood by his word.. At times, he defended those unable to defend themselves. These values were instilled in others who had contact with him. Frank has been called a true gentleman.

Charlene thanks you for being a part of his life and honoring him by your presence today.

Marilyn worked as a home helper and as a temporary employee at IBM and a mortgage company before accepting a position with the City of San Jose in the Records Division at San Jose Police Department. She was proud of her work as a Police Data Specialist ll and stayed from July 1979 until her retirement in 2000. Marilyn always went the extra mile. She once noticed and reported a vehicle driving down Capital Expressway that matched a partial plate she had been working on. She received a commendation after the suspect was arrested. Marilyn was also known for singing “Santa Baby” upon request, her great sense of humor, and some of her crazy Halloween costumes.

Marilyn enjoyed dancing, roller skating, bowling, gambling trips to Reno, and all of the wonderful friends she met along the way. Her smile, sense of humor, and kindness will be missed. She will forever live on in the hearts and memories of those who were fortunate enough to know her.

John Jason Gale passed away peacefully in his sleep on May 6 in Torrance. He was 93 years old.

Born in Chicago and raised in Sioux Falls, SD, Jason moved to Southern California at 18 when he learned there was an opportunity to attend junior college for five dollars a term there. While attending Long Beach City College, he worked as domestic help for Congressman and Mrs. Clyde Doyle, who motivated him to go to law school.

Jason then attended UCLA for his undergraduate work until he enlisted in the Army Air Corps the day after Pearl Harbor was attacked in 1941. He became an aviator in the Army Air Corps and was deployed to Foggia, Italy upon graduation from flight school. He served as a bombardier in a B-17 in World War II and was awarded The Purple Heart after being wounded during one of his initial missions, later returning to complete 34 missions over Germany and Austria. He was also awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom and a third medal for his heroic efforts.

When World War II ended, Jason resumed his education at UCLA and also resumed his romance with the love of his life, Paula Ann Betz, whom he married in 1947. They were married until her death 61 years later. He enrolled in Loyola University Law School in Los Angeles, where he earned a Juris Doctor. He and his wife had three children, Janice, Jason Jr., and Stephen.

Commencing his career in private practice as an attorney in Los Angeles, Jason later served as a civilian attorney for the United States Navy in San Diego. Joining The Aerospace Corporation as assistant general counsel in 1962, Jason spent 17 years there before retiring early to expand his private practice. He specialized in wills, estates, trusts, probate, and corporate law until he retired in December of last year as one of the longest-serving lawyers in the history of the California Bar.

Jason was active in many Southern California causes over the years. He served as president of The South Bay Bar Association and was a founder of the federal chapters of the American Bar Association in Beverly Hills and San Diego. He was a Trustee of Southwestern Law School in Los Angeles, and also served as a trustee of the Providence Little Company of Mary Medical Center Foundation for nine years, after which he was named Trustee Emeritus. Jason was a 49-year member of the Palos Verdes Breakfast Club, where he served as president in 1985. He was a long-time member of the Palos Verdes Tennis Club, where he also served as president. He and Paula were avid world travelers for most of their time together.

After being inspired by television’s Dancing with the Stars, Jason took up swing dancing at the age of 90, attending regular dances across Southern California until his unfortunate physical disablement last year.

Jason’s survivors include his daughter, Mrs. Janice Gale Silva (James); his son, Stephen Gale (Sin-Wee Koh-Gale); his grandson, William James Silva; and his great-grandson, Parker James Lee Silva.

A memorial service for John Jason Gale will be held at 1 p.m. on May 15 at The Neighborhood Church 415 Paseo Del Mar, Palos Verdes Estates.

The family requests that contributions be made in his name to The Providence Little Company of Mary Medical Center Foundation and Providence TrinityCare Hospice in Torrance.

Marie passed away February 28th at the age of 92 surrounded by her children and grandchildren.

She was born in Campobello Di Mazara, Sicily on September 12, 1922. In early childhood the family moved to Casablanca, Morocco, then a French colony. As a young woman she worked as a seamstress, a talent she passed on to her daughter. She married John, her best friend's brother in 1943 and the couple enjoyed a happy life in spite of war time shortages. They managed to have fun camping on the beach, near the family's farm house, dragging a household of equipment to the water front so that they could cook pasta and fresh fish with extended family. The couple spent many evenings with family and friends, dancing to the accordion playing the waltz and the tango.

They enjoyed long summer vacations driving through Spain, Portugal, France and England. In 1950 they made a pilgrimage to Rome for the "Holy Year" where she was touched and blessed by the Pope while standing in a huge crowd at St. Peter's Square. The following year they started their family and later, immigrated to San Jose in 1961 to join her mother, father and siblings.

Marie was an unpretentious woman who enjoyed a simple life as a devoted wife, mother and grandmother. She was especially attentive to her grandchildren who spent lots of time with "Mémé", French for grandmother. She thrived on cooking hot after-school snacks, made with love. She cooked her delicious spaghetti sauce every Sunday well into her 90th year, which her grandchildren cherish to this day. She also found great joy spending time with her extended family, especially at annual reunions.
