Rafael passed away peacefully on January 19, 2020 in Bakersfield, California. He is preceded in death by his parents Rafael Sr. and Julia Hernandez, and his sons Michael, Frank, and Robert Hernandez. He is survived by his wife of 66 years Cresencia Hernandez, daughters Julia Cisneros and Martha Wengert, sons Ralph and Joe Hernandez (Rosa), 15 grandchildren and 23 great-grandchildren. Born in Karnes City, Texas, and raised in Tornillo, our father spent the last 70 years of his life in Bakersfield working and providing for his family with the love of his life Cresencia Gomez. Our father enjoyed doing many things and had great times with many people, but at the end it was his family, wife, children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren that brought him joy. We will miss him here on Earth, but we know we will see him again as that strong, hardworking, loveable man in heaven. We would like to thank the folks at Hospice Optimal Care for their unbelievable support and outstanding services, as well as the caregivers at The Park Assisted Living Residential Home for Dementia and Alzheimer’s Care. Thank you and God bless you all. There will be no viewing. Services will be private.
