Rosalia Fernandez Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Lia is survived by her husband, Juan A Fernandez, whom she married in 1960, and their three children, Maria (Joel), Juan (Holly) and Miguel (Dawn). She was a loved and cherished wife and mother.
Lia earned a teaching degree in Cuba, although once married, she became a stay-at-home wife and eventually mother. When her husband came to the US, she stayed in Cuba for a year with her children before they were allowed to join him.
She was a devoted and loved "Nana" to her seven grandchildren: Alex, Anna, Drew, Emily, Gabriella, Max and Steven (Emily). She was also a beloved aunt to her 16 nieces and nephews.
Lia loved traveling, especially visiting and vacationing with family and friends. She also loved praying the rosary with her friends, shopping, watching movies, listening to music and dancing.

My heart is with all of you at this time. I left Juan a message but wanted all of you to know that I am praying for you. Your family has always been close and I hope that brings you comfort. I loved your Mom very much, as I do Juan. You were so blessed to have such a loving Mom. May peace and memories be with each of you.

My heart goes out to all of you. Your family, I know, is so close. Juan loved Lia with his whole heart. I left him a message and hope to speak with him soon. However, I wanted all of you to know, I am praying for you. Your Mom was a wonderful lady and I truly loved she and your Dad. May God be with each of you.
Love, Susan Miles Zimlich
