Fernando was an exceptional friend and mentor to many, including my daughter, Mariah. There was a kindness about Fernando that very few can admit to sharing. He loved living, harmony and helping others. His compassion for animals, this earth and others was a remarkable attribute that will be very hard to replace. His love for his family was always evident and the respect and love he gave was never asked for but given, generously. Heaven has a spot for Fernando , otherwise, God wouldn't have called him home this early in life.
May the blessings he left as footprints, enrich those he cared for so generously...carry on in his abscense. This world will miss a great humanitarian.
My Prayers are with this family.
Respectfully
Susan de Vegter and Mariah Rowse

I moved from Atlanta two years ago to work for Fernando. That was the best move that I ever could have made. He motivated me, encouraged me, and made me realize my own potential. Those many conversations on the patio will be missed. Fernando, I am so blessed that you were a part of my life even if only for a short time.

I absolutly loved working for Fernando. He was easy to talk to. I remember my first day there, He came in looked at my name tag and shooked my hand introducing himself to me. That stuck with me as I had NEVER met an owner to do that. He was a great man, and My mom and I will miss him.

I called on Fernando several different times to advertise his new restaurant, Los Cabos, with Cox Media. He always was very friendly and had told me that he was going to advertise as soon as they were "up on their feet". I brought my family to eat at his new restaurant. He made sure everything was great. I could tell he really loved the reataurant business and people. My husband commented on what a nice man he was and how he would be successsful due to his warm personality. He was always ready to talk to me and treated me with respect,and that is not always the case when calling on clients.
I am sad for the loss of such a nice person and also for his "dream" of bringing such an "upscale" mexican restaurant to Warner Robins. I am sorry for your loss. Sincerely,
Denise Fortenberry
