December 11, 1968 - July 18, 2021
Rodrigo Maruri Prado came to this world on a sunny day the 11th of December, 1968, the youngest of the Maruri Prado couple. Since childhood he was a quiet, loving child who loved animals. By trying to save a dog, he saved himself from a tremendous collision, all over his concern for that little animal, saving both their lives. Rodrigo was an excellent student, always outstanding for his grades and discipline. A good friend, he was a kid with great solidarity.
His life continued in his second "Home" in Whitehorse, Canada. Here Rodrigo spent over 10 years and made his presence and charisma known with just the sound of a simple "Hello my friend!".
His voice was recognizable indeed, but his singing was what his peers loved to hear during the many Karaoke outings. Elvis was the obvious choice for him, his favorite singer.
Rodrigo left us on the morning of July 18th, 2021 after bravely battling a long illness. He will be forever missed by all the people that met him and will remain in our thoughts and hearts.
