En Memoria de

Fernando Avila

Fernando Ávila fue un hombre feliz, chiflador, alegre y bromista. Sus colores favoritos eran rojo y amarillo, y amaba su rancho Luchanitas, al que siempre deseaba ir. Disfrutaba la música, especialmente Los Rancheritos del Topo Chico, y fue un hombre de profunda fe, católico y devoto de San Judas Tadeo.
Compartió 54 años de matrimonio con mi madre, fue padre de 4 hijos, abuelo de 13 nietos y bisabuelo de 10 bisnietos. De sus hermanos le sobreviven tres, con quienes siempre mantuvo un lazo de cariño.
Aunque siempre tuvo miedo a morir, luchó con valentía hasta el final. Su fuerza y amor por la vida nos dejan un ejemplo eterno.
Estamos muy agradecidos con Claudia e Ivonne Ávila, sus enfermeras de cabecera, y Natalia Ávila, quien viajó desde lejos para acompañarlo en vida. Gracias también a mi tío Chojo, quien siempre estuvo pendiente de mi padre hasta el último suspiro, y a los hijos de mi tío, por todo su apoyo y cariño.
Fernando fue un hombre muy amiguero, querido y recordado por todos con bonitos recuerdo.
