Hello everyone, my name is Katherine.

It is with heavy hearts that we share the loss of our dear family member, Fernando, who lost his life on August 11, 2025.

Fernando was a gentle soul with a contagious energy. He was the life of every gathering—whether we were sitting around a fire or taking a spontaneous trip to Destin, he brought joy and warmth wherever he went. We worked with him, vacationed with him, and shared countless memories together. His light touched every one of us.

Fernando leaves behind his loving mother, Marisol, and his brothers, Charlie and Jesse. With much of Marisol's extended family living in Mexico, we—Fernando’s chosen family and loved ones—have created this GoFundMe to help ease the financial burden of cremation and memorial expenses.

This is an incredibly difficult time, and we want to give Fernando the memorial he deserves—one that reflects the deep love and vibrant light he brought into all our lives. Your support will help Marisol honor her son’s memory in a meaningful way.

Any amount you can give is deeply appreciated. Let’s come together to show Marisol and the family the same love that Fernando gave so freely to all of us.

Thank you for your compassion and generosity.
