Axel Edir Rodriguez Rivera, Gainesville, FL— Axel Edir Rodriguez Rivera passed away on Sunday, December 8th, 2024, peacefully in his sleep. He was 57 years old. Axel had battled Stage 4 Kidney Disease for the past two years, a fight that eventually claimed his life.
Axel was a devoted father of six, known for his resilience and hardworking spirit despite the hardships he faced throughout his life. Having lived homeless for eight years, Axel turned his life around with the support of family and friends, becoming a line cook at several restaurants. His passion for cooking and his desire to bring joy through food kept him going, even as he worked 55-hour weeks to support his family.
Despite his struggles, Axel passed with little financial means, and his family is now seeking help to cover his cremation and urn costs. His daughter, Paz Rodriguez, has started a fundraiser to help with these expenses. So far, $1,250 has been raised, with contributions from generous donors such as Lilith Browne, who gave $1,000, and Nicole Ní Duibhginn, who donated $50. The donations will help ensure that Axel’s final wishes for cremation and an urn are honored, as he had agreed with his late mother.
The community has rallied around the family, offering support in their time of need. Axel’s memory will live on in the hearts of those who knew him, especially through his dedication to his children and the work he did to provide for them.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family of Axel Edir Rodriguez Rivera during this incredibly difficult time.
