Manuel Fernandez Obituary

MAY 31, 1996 - DEC. 29, 2010 On May 31, 1996, at 5:00 p.m., the Lord blessed our family with Manny. After an eight year battle with brain cancer we handed him back to the Lord, on December 29, 2010, at 12:30 a.m. Manny loved Jesus and was a true warrior for Christ. His favorite Bible verse was John 3:16. Manny was a 9th grader at John F. Kennedy High School. He attended San Fernando Elementary and George K. Porter Middle School. Manny's courageous battle was an inspiration to so many people. He is survived by his parents, Manuel Jr. and Elizabeth; siblings, Isaac, Raquel, Adam and Cassandra; grandparents, Manuel and Maria Fernandez, and Evangeline and Robert Kitley, Ernest and Olivia Davila and Alice Ramirez; many aunts, uncles and cousins. He was preceded in death by his grandfather, Salvador Ramirez. He will be missed and will live in our hearts forever. A Celebration of Manny's Life was held Monday, January 3, 2011, at Trinity Church in San Fernando, followed by Interment at San Fernando Mission Cemetery.

Fernandez family:
You guys are always in my thoughts && prayers. Manny was one person i can never forget, he always brought a smile to my face since the day i met him. Such joy came from my Little Man, that everytime I was around him, i knew i wouldn't have a frown. He is in the hands of the Lord giving inspiration to all of us knowing he gave his all. I adore all of you for the courage you've shown me. I love you all && i wish you the best. Manny will forever && always be in my heart.

Although the certainty that you are living eternal life in the warm embrace of God brings us comfort, you have left a void in our hearts that can never be replaced. You left us too soon. We miss you.
