I just found out about Dr. Fernandez's passing. She was a wonderful, caring person. She has taken wonderful care of our dogs, Snowy and Munchkin. Snowy was one of Dr Fernandez's first patients at Lakeside Animal Hospital. My dogs, my husband and myself will truly miss her. Rest In Peace, Dr. Fernandez.

To Monica's family and friends, I sincerely mourn your loss, and mine. So very saddened to learn of Monica's passing when just recently visited Lakeside to pick up my Frosty's meds - she has taken such great care of his special needs since a pup - for over eight years. A more caring, gentle and loving person is not to be found, and I am grateful to have known her for all her wonderful personal qualities as well as her outstanding medical attributes. There is a special place in our hearts for persons such as Monica, who are the healers, who have touched so many people with their support and strength, who have committed themselves to caring for others who needed them - that is why she will never really be far away - her spirit lives on in all the familiar ways we remember her and all that she did for those whose lives she touched. Rest in peace, dear doctor. Miss you now and always.

Dear Dr. Fernandez,
You touched my life profoundly through the years. You were always there for my many dogs, a few whom you saved the lives of several times! When I lost one of my most beloved dogs, you also cried with me. I have never known a more compassionate person ever in my life. We will always love you and miss you. Lakeside is like a second home for us. Thank you, Thank You!!!

My heart goes out to the whole family. I had not seen Monica for a very long time, and that sadens me. I will always remember family functions when we were very little, and having to play with Barbie dolls with her and her big sister.
Regretably, I will not be able to attend the services, I will keep her family in my thoughts.

Dear Monica,
You and your father will joyously be reunited for Easter in a loving place where there is no pain, just beauty. My heart aches for those of us left behind. I was introduced to you as an adorable 1st grade student at St. Andrew Catholic school during my first year as principal. From there, beautiful memories were made as you were not only intelligent, poised, and well mannered, but also fun loving. You were an earthly angel and now a very special heavenly one. You lived a loving, productive 40 years and you will be missed and never forgotten!
