I am very saddened by the passing of Professor Fernandez-Vina. She was a wonderful colleague and supporter. She served on our Women's Month Committee, she traveled with our students, in the snow, to California, PA to the final four, she worked tirelessly to create a civil campus and student body through the Society for Civility.
Professor Ferandez served as an advisor for the Latino Students in Action. Both she and her mother shared the Latino culture with us through programming and food. The best food! She cared about us, about the students about Cheyney. In December, I picked up a Cheyney shirt for her, at the request of Ms. Vicki Redmond. On Valentine's Day, I shared lunch with my friend Vicki and we discussed going to see Teresita. We procrastinated and never got to see her smile as she received her Cheyney shirt.
Do it today! Vist, call, share your love today. Tomorrow is not promised to any of us.
Lots of love to you, Teresita
