Fatima Conejero Chambers, 61, passed away surrounded by her loving family on Friday, December 27, 2019 at McGraw Hospice Center. She was born on May 13, 1958 to Jose and Teresita Conejero in the Philippines.

Fatima was a wonderful mother and wife. There wasn’t anything she wouldn’t do for her three children Christine, Christopher, Camille and her husband Brian. Raising them was the number one priority in her life. She was a supportive, caring and loving mother. She was an amazing grandmother to her one and only grandchild Christian. Fatima was also very close to her 9 brothers and sisters. She was the “glue” that held the family together.

Fatima was a former employee at Borland-Groover Clinic for over 18 years. She was trained in every position at BGC and she went where ever she was needed. She loved her job and the people she worked with. Her fellow employees loved her outgoing personality and it rubbed off on many of them. Hard working, dedication and reliability are core traits that she believed to instill into her kids. “Fatima was one of those people that when faced with one of life’s biggest challenges, she kept a smile on her face and a positive attitude. Her laugh and her smile were contagious to anyone around her, there will never be another Fatima Chambers” Kyle Etzkorn, BGC CEO/President.

Fatima loved people and her day would be complete when she made a new friend. Her personality was so bubbly that it only took one encounter to make a friend for life. She had an outgoing personality and a beautiful smile that made a lasting impact on each person she met. The vastness of the friends she has made travels across continents and countries around the world.
