Mauricio Rincon's Obituary
“A friend loveth at all times.” Proverbs 17:17
Mauricio “Mo” Rincon was born on October 4, 1981, in Washington, D.C. He was surrounded by family when he passed away in Tampa on November 17, 2024, at the age of 43. Up until his last breath, Mauricio fought tirelessly, and his faith in God remained steadfast.
Mauricio left this earth all too soon, and words cannot describe the incredibly generous heart and positive impact he made on this world.
He is survived by his beloved wife, Jennie Rincon; his children, Christian Rincon and Caylin Rincon; his mother, Betty Rincon; his brother, Phillip Rincon; and his grandfather, Edgar H. Rincon. He was preceded in death by his father, Ivan Rincon. He also leaves behind a large, loving family: Nancy Velez, Piedad Deconti, Victor Rincon, Andres Rincon, and Fabio Rincon.
Mauricio was an admirable man throughout his life and always put his family first and foremost. He was a devoted husband with an unwavering love for Jennie. As a father, he strived for nothing less than a life of integrity. He was a kind-hearted son, and to his brother, he was nothing less than a “ride or die.” Whether family was near or far, Mauricio cherished family gatherings and never took for granted the time they spent together. His love will continue to impact others as they carry his memory with them.
Mauricio’s character was larger than life, and there was not an event too small that he couldn’t bring “life to the party.” Anyone he met quickly became a friend, and friends grew to become family.
His exuberant love for others did not stop at family and friends; he extended his love to his work family and even strangers. Mauricio’s passion was bringing people together, and he was typically the mastermind organizing it all. He planned unforgettable trips and built memories that will never be replaced.
Mauricio’s legacy will inspire us to live each day with no regrets and to love one another no matter what. He will continue to lead us with his notorious rallying cry: “Let’s go!”
Although our loss of Mauricio is insurmountable, we count our blessings and thank God for the time we were privileged to spend with such an extraordinary man.
What made Mauricio the happiest was being surrounded by those he loved. Even on the day of his passing, he still brought friends and family together to laugh, reminisce about the good times, and raise a toast in his honor.
