Family and friends are celebrating the life and mourning the loss this week of Margarito Villavicencio Rodriguez, age 65. He will always be remembered by his wife, Maribel Castaneda de Villavicencio and his children; Edgar Alonso, Pamela, Angelina and Jose; brothers, Tranquilino and Rosario; grand-children, Mia Elizabeth, Sophia Denise, Evelyn, Anthony and Ray-Ray; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Margarito was a friend to everyone and a hard worker. He was an excellent father and a great husband, a retired welder and a member of Saint Anne Catholic Church in Rock Hill. He loved soccer, romantic music and movies.

The family will host a Celebration of Life Mass at a later date.
