Memories and Condolences
for Miguel Hernandez

Not sure what to say?





Thank you to everyone for the kind messages on behalf of my brother Marvin. When I read these messages, I recall a long-time saying: A measure of a man's life is not how much he loved, but how much he was loved. God bless all of you.

Mike's brother, Antonio

Marvin was a gentleman in all essence of the word. A true gentleman and gentle man. Always ready to lend a helping hand to Adriana and myself whenever we requested his assistance (as well as to others). We trained, worked and laughed together many times. Few times in life we come across a person that brings so much joy and honor in sharing happiness and sorrows. Most of all a man that knew the love of God. We will miss him dearly. (Angela P. from SAWS)

Every day when I came into work, Marvin's desk was always the first on the right hand side and he always greeted me with a smile. Even with the pressure of work, he was eternally optimistic and his self-deprecating humor only showed us what an extraordinarily gentle and kind man he was. May his smile grace God up in heaven but never be forgotten here.

Marvin I will miss your precious smile and bear hugs. You were a ray of sunshine who always went the extra mile to assist your peers in decorating cubicles for special events. God needed another "ANGEL" and choice the right person. Your spirit and presence will live.

Marvin "Antonio Balderas" :-D you will be miss! I remember when you started calling me "supermodel/movie star" because my picture came out in the Watermark news @ SAWS, I will not forget that.

God be with you & always Marvin to the family.

Marvin was an angel walking among us. God gave him to us for a short time, but it was time for him to do his destiny and earn his wings. He always went beyond what he had to do, always cheerful and caring. We already missed his presence in the Call Center when he went to Mission Rd. We'll miss "Marvin" "Antonio Banderas" Hernandez. Bless him. Condolences to Tom and to Marvin's family from one of Marvin's SAWS family.

To Tom and the Hernandez family. I knew Marvin for 23yrs and every moment of it was special. He was my best man at my wedding but so much more. He was a friend that you make maybe once in a lifetime. There will always be a big void in my life. I will never forget him. I can only imagine the void that will be in your lives. But his memory will be with us all and knowing that someday we will see him again will get us through. I loved him as much as anyone. There will never be another Marvin in my life. My condolences to you the Hernandez family and to you Tom. God Bless. And rest in peace my friend, you are in a much better place now.
