My heart goes out to the Fernandez and Wells family as I have just learned of the passing of both of your parents and sweet Mima. I find it hard to believe that they are all gone. Your parents were two of the finest people I have ever known. They were phenomenal examples for all of you. I regret that we have lost touch, but that will change...life is far too short to let people that we care about slip away. See you soon. Much love,

Dear Ralph, Marco, Gina, Michelle, et al-
I was so saddened to read about the "passing" of your Mother, Sandra M. Fernandez. I remember as a young, vibrant and energetic woman--a woman who was always in great shape. I remember her talking about one of her daughters who was a great gymnast...
When I was five, (I'm now 58, your Mom and Dad gave me a beautiful rocking chair after one of their trips to the Dominican Republic...I still have that chair and to this day I treasure it. I'm so sorry that our families lost touch--but I just wanted to let you know that we here in Boonton Township, NJ and also the people around the world will miss your Mom, Sandra so mush. It brings back memories of a special, special time in my life when we saw your parents many time.
Sincerely,
Laura Cobrinik
