FONTCUBERTA

Her journey of faith placed her roots deeply in the Christian faith. She enjoyed traveling which brought her to places such as The Holy Lands and to Medjugorje. She was a founding partner of Surveys, Inc. (land surveyors) and later worked as a bookkeeper and file clerk for Fontcuberta Surveys, Inc. until July of this year. An inspirational writer and poet, her family intends to publish her volumes of works. Sadly missed by all, but all are comforted knowing she is in Heaven.

Relatives and friends of the family are invited to attend the visitation from 6-9 p.m. today at E.J. Fielding Funeral Home Inc., 2260 W. 21st Ave., Covington, and from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. tomorrow followed by a funeral Mass at 2 p.m. at St. Joseph Abbey, 75376 River Road, St. Benedict.
