Sudden Passing of Heather Rodriguez

Community Transit Colleagues,

With heavy heart, I must share with you news of the sudden passing of our Community Transit colleague, Heather Rodriguez. Heather has been a coach operator at CT for almost seven years and a beloved member of our agency. Heather had an exuberant personality and a friendly nature. She was also an outspoken advocate for her colleagues’ safety on the road.
