Still hard not seeing you around... I still remember the last time we seen each other sitting at my grandpas dinner table laughing and telling stories. Crazy to think in a few days it will be a year the last time I said good bye. We love you very much Fernando and you are deeply and sincerely missed!

My friend and one of my bosses at GE in San Jose, CA, Fernando was a wonderful man who was blessed with being patient and kind. We kept in touch after we both retired from GE and sent emails occasionally and always at Christmas. I missed hearing from him this Christmas and was saddened to learn that he has passed on to his eternal home. May God bless the family he left behind and give them peace. You will see him again as he left his forwarding address to be with our Heavenly Father.

Dear Brother I just can't believe your gone. I'm still numb. I waited for your call. I know it will never come again. Life is journey your born and then gone. But you had too much suffering. I just can't understand why good lord made you suffer so much. Maybe because you were always a fighter. To my nephews and nieces. My deepest sympathy and love for all you in my your father passing. May you rest in peace beloved brother. Jose H. Velez and Family - 16 days ago

To my Brother Fernando. It's only been short time. and I miss you already. Before you were close or far away. But I knew we would contact each other almost everyday. Now the phone is silent and email no more. The maker has finally brought you his kingdom. Your suffering is gone. Now you can rest in peace. Please say hello our ancestor, Father, Mother and our twin Sister. Tell them I miss them very much and you of course. Until we meet again. Love you from the bottom of my heart Brother.
