Hi, we are David Zarfati and Cathy Fernandez and we would like to alleviate the financial burden that is going to be absorbed by his mother Edita with the medical bills and financial resposibility that has fallen on her alone.

Our beloved childhood friend, Luis, son of amazing mom (Edita) who was vivacious, full of love and dedicated to his son Devin, family and friends has unexpectedly been called home to our Lord.

His death was so sudden, nobody could have ever prepared for this. We received a call on Sunday afternoon that he had a stroke on Saturday and was rushed to Palmetto General Hospital. They discovered a blood clot in his brain and had to rush him into surgery. They also consequently found that he had leukemia which complicated everything. Unfortunately he never recovered from surgery. He was placed on a ventilator in the critical care unit surrounded by his loving family and held on until Monday night November 14th when his beloved mother arrived from Canada to say her heartbreaking goodbye's. His heart stopped shortly after and our lives are forever changed. 

How do you measure a person’s life?….by the way he affects other people’s lives...

He was such a gentle soul. A stellar father, son, brother and friend.
So kind. So much fun. Everyone he met was touched by his kindness and good humor. He taught us the value of friendship. He made our lives better by being in it. His kindness was top notch. His son Devin is right. “You’re a Legend”. May your jokes and laughter live long in our hearts so that we can try to fill the void with your warm memories.

Luis, we love you and miss you dearly.

And he said to him, “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in Paradise.” Luke 23:43

“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going.” John 14:1-4

“Why does God take the best people from us?”
“Well, when you are in a garden which flowers do you pick first?”
“The most beautiful ones”
