My sincere condolences to the entire Fernandez family on the passing of Jose.   I work in Vernon and have known Jose for over 30 years.  He was a great person and was always so helpful to me and my team in his very important role.  He will be deeply missed by many of us at Flowserve.   May knowing that he touched many of our loves bring your some solace in this difficult time
Sincerely 

Tío querido, para mi mamá usted fue más que un hermano, un amigo, un compañero. Así aprendimos a quererlo: en los recuerdos de infancia de mi mamá donde abundaban sus vivencias juntos. Gracias por su generosidad, por su buen ánimo siempre, por estar cerca de mi mamá en los momentos difíciles y también en las alegrías. Estará siempre en nuestros corazones y lo recordaremos como el tío y hermano generoso que fue. Siempre lo admiramos por haber logrado hacer una hermosa familia y por su tenacidad en el trabajo y en la vida. Abrazos a mi tía, primos y sobrinos. También a todos mis tíos, sus hermanos. Que Dios traiga paz a sus corazones para celebrar su vida. 

It was an absolute pleasure for us to have known Joe. He was such a kind man and always welcomed us with open arms to his home. I will always remember how he would chat with my husband about the dodgers and his genuine caring for my boys when they would see him. 
To Wendy and the entire Fernandez family,  what a beautiful service you all put together to honor your dad. I know he is proud if you all. Sending you all peace, love and prayer ❤️
The Mejia family 

My most sincerest condolences to the Fernandez family. My thoughts and prayers are with you.  Jose was a great man, hard worker and full time joker but most of all he could always be depended on.  You were taken way too soon after retiring.  I know you are looking down on your Flowserve family shaking your head at us all.  You will be missed. 

My most sincerest condolences to the Fernandez family. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Mr. Fernandez was such a kind man with the greatest sense of humor.  Ever since I can remember, every time he would see me, he would say hello and call me some random name, as he smirked in the background.  One of the girls would always say "Dad! Her name is not (insert random name)". And he would say, "Oh, sorry (insert another name) ". This all started when I was a teenager, and it wasn't until the last few years where he actually called me by my real name- which sounded a bit awkward=} but I know it was all in good fun. Mr. Fernandez was someone you could always count on to lighten the mood. There will never be another man quite like him. I know his memory will live on forever. 

I am very sad to hear about Jose's passing.  My name is Riley Watson and I work as an Engineer at Flowserve.  I have had many good conversations with Jose over the years, as I walked passed the Shipping Floor.   I miss chatting with Jose and Nelson about the fruits and foods of Mexico and places we have visited, and all other the nonsense we would talk about.  I am at a loss for words, please accept my condolences.

I feel like I knew your Dad from all the stories that Wendyann has shared over the years.He was a great Dad and a great provider for his family. He will surely be missed.

I will miss my Tio Lalo. He was such an amazing uncle. I will remember him for his wisdom, great conversations, his laughter and his cool personality. One of the things I will never forget him for is the fire he lit under me to become an educated and successful individual. God has used different people in my life and He definitely used my Tio to push me to better myself as a person. I will never forget that. Thank you, Tio for everything- you were an amazing blessing to me, I will miss you immensely & won't forget the wisdom you shared with me. 

With Much Love,
Stephen 

My condolences for Jose’s family I’ve known him for many years, we worked together at Flowserve, he was a great friend, I will miss him. I will always remember when he came from Michoacán wearing a nice belt that his son in law gave him and when I told him that I will like to have one his answer was that he will ask his son in law to feed a cow enough to make me a belt for me. I love you Jose, rest in heaven . Your friend, Abelardo 

My most sincere condolences to the Fernandez family on such a big and sudden loss.   You have left this world too soon after retirement. I know you had plans to travel with your family, go to Morelia and spend quality time with them. It breaks my heart that this was taken from you way too soon. I enjoyed working with you and all those talks we had. You would so proudly share about your family and then you would ask me about mine. You made work fun and always had the right thing to say when anyone was having a bad day. You always told me that at the end of the day family is what came first. I hope you are in heaven smiling down. It warms my heart to see all the nice memories and pictures everyone Is sharing. Rest in heaven Jose.

What can I say, Jose. You have left this world too soon and I was shocked and devastated to hear of your passing. There isn't a day where I do not think of my work Grandpa that I always fight and bicker with. Sometimes, I think you purposely push my buttons just to get me worked up like in a telenovela. You were such a sweet man and a wonderful co-worker to me. You taught me the ways of the job and always told me to RELAX when I was stressed with work. I hope to withhold that mentality because you always made work bearable and more enjoyable. It wasn't long since you have retired and I am so sadden that you were not able to enjoy retirement as much as you deserved. You worked day in and day out to support your family and I admire that about you. Please rest easy up there, mi abuelo. Te amo and my condolences to the Fernandez family. 

First I would like to give my condolences to the Fernandez Family, I was so sad to hear of my dear friends passing. Just as he came home with stories from work, he came to work with stories from home. José ALWAYS talked about each of you and was so proud of you. It was clear how much he loved his family. He was such a character, there was never a dull moment. He would fight with Iris and I then he would make us laugh. I only got to work with him for a few years and quickly learned his stubbornness but also his kindness. When he retired there was an empty space that no one could fill.  May the Lord give you all strength during this difficult time and may his spirit comfort you all!

Since day one. You my friend have been & always will be in my heart. You have always been a special man to me. Your knowledge and your “not impressed with anything “ state of mind has always stuck with me. I’m very glad & proud to say I met a real stand up man.  Our living world as we know it lost a fantastic humorous man; but heaven gained a great!!! You will be missed for sure in a lot of memories .

Nino, where do I begin... you were like my second father and you have seen me grow up as baby to woman. You always were the voice of reason, and always had a positive outlook to a negative circumstance. I always loved hearing your opinions on anything and took in your advice in my heart. I’m so fortunate to have told you how much I loved you the last time we saw one another, and regardless of the goodbyes you told me “I’ll see you again”. I can still hear your voice as if you were still here, my heart hurts in this reality that I can’t see you, hug you, and talk to you. Thank you for being the best uncle that I could ever have known. I am forever blessed that you got to meet and spend time with Lorenzo and my kids. I will cherish our memories forever in my heart, and occasionally reminisce on your jokes, I love you forever. And to all my cousins and Nina, I grieve with you, I love you and we are here for you always...please never forget that. 

Lamento muchísimo la pérdida de mi tío Lalo, Recordaré todo aquello que compartimos de forma muy especial cuando íbamos de visita.  Mi tío siempre demostró con sus acciones el cariño y dedicación a su familia.  Sin duda un hombre trabajador a quien quiero y respeto mucho.  Le mando mi más sentido pésame a Mi tía y primos.  Los quiero mucho y comparto su dolor .  Les mando un fuerte abrazo, Celio 

Aniza, your Grandfather was such a nice man. I remember seeing him in April when he was about to go for a walk with his dog. We had a brief conversation and he was nice enough to ask about how our family was doing. Such a good person. May you be comforted in knowing that he’s at peace and will always be with you in spirit. 

Love Always. Your Tia Meris (Marybeth Vergara-Garcia) and Family

Gracias pepe por todos los momentos que pasamos juntos, ir al estadio , mirar copas del mundo y aprendí mucho de fútbol pero lo mas importante me enseñó hacer un mejor esposo para cindy y un buen padre. 

I love you pepperoni and you told me to work hard. 

I once was having a difficult time during my soccer career at the point where I wanted to give up, but my grandfather (Pepe) asked me: Is this what you love?. And I said without hesitation: Yes. Then he told me: If this is what you love to do, then the only person that could stop you from doing it is you. After that moment every time that I would mess up I then knew what he meant, because the only person that stop me from doing what I love was myself and after I made a mistake I would keep going so I would never stop myself from moving up. 

I feel so blessed to be the best friend of one oh this wonderful mans daughters. His dedication to his wife, children and grandchildren was very apparent to anyone who came in contact with him. I will forever be grateful for the welcome he always showed to not only myself but to my family.  Every time I saw him, he always asked how my husband Victor was doing or if he  had watched the latest soccer game. Sending the entire family prayers, love and comfort as they celebrate and remember their amazing patriarch.

Love- The Castelo Family

Dad you are so loved and you loved everyone. Thank you for everything you've taught us. I will carry your words forever and pass them on to my girls and they will pass them on to theirs. God is good. 

My dad.  One memory that I can share about my dad is that when ever I did something wrong, he would always tell me I had a strike 1,2 or 3 depending on how he felt. 
Love you dad forever,
Lorena
