James Anthony Rodriguez's Obituary
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of James Rodriguez, who left this world on
April 21st, 2024 at the age of 35.
James was a beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend, who will be missed by all who knew and
loved him.
A brilliant mind with a gentle soul, James had a passion for good literature, science, and a knack
for understanding life’s greatest complexities.
A graduate of Royse City High School and Southern Methodist University, James was an
extraordinary intellect whose enthusiasm for learning never wavered.
He could always be counted on to answer the phone, and would spend hours talking about
anime, chemistry, or the last great novel he had read.
James is survived by his loving mother Tina Walters, father Jim Walters, and siblings Natalie, Lisa,
Ciara, Caitrin, and Blaine, who will forever cherish the memories they share together.
He will be remembered for his effortless intellect, quiet thoughtfulness, and steadfast loyalty.

The family asks that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the JPS Foundation at https://www.jpshealthnet.org/foundation
May he rest in peace, having left; an indelible mark on all who had the privilege of knowing him.
