Esther Fernandez Obituary

Esther Fernandez, 69 years old passed away on January 23, 2026. She was born in a small town of Pacora, Caldas Colombia on October 24, 1956. She came to America in search of love, which she found when she met and married Louis M. Fernandez. She was a devoted housewife and mother to Branch Fernandez, her only son. She brought joy and happiness to all who met her. Always selfless and trying to help the ones around her. A true example of what it means to give your life to others. She leaves us with a huge empty hole in our lives, but heaven has gained a treasure. She is survived by her son, Branch, sisters, Hilda, Dolania, Luz Marina, Piedad, brothers, Huberto, Wilmar and her nephews Julian, Juan Camilo, and niece Carolina. 

We will forever carry you in our hearts.
Rest in Peace.
