Armani Yandel Rodriguez, age 15, of Little Rock, went to be with our Lord on Sunday February 9, 2025. Armani lived a short but memorable life as a son, brother, and friend to many. He was very kind, compassionate, and caring, loved video games, and spending time with his cat, family, and friends. Armani was attending ninth grade at Southwest High School in Little Rock. He is preceded in death by grandfather, Edgar Rogers, grandmother, Modell Rogers, and uncles, Eddie and Johnny Rogers.

Armani is survived by his sisters, Yesenia Navarrete, Samantha Navarrete, Seanna Navarrete, Xochilt Robolledo, Ximena Robolledo, Brother, Jessie Navarrete, Nieces, Arcelia Leyva, Angelica Leyva, Genesis Miranda, Sophia Saez, Nephews, David Leyva Jr, Christopher Saez, Matheo Banegas, and Lorenzo Banegas, and many aunts, uncles, and cousins who live in Arkansas.

The family is devasted with this unexpected loss of Armani and asks that your thoughts and prayers stay with him. The sudden loss of his life will leave the deepest of voids and missing of his presence forever. His family are now left with the gift of memories. That sweet smile, his funny jokes, and endless love.
