Surrounded by those who loved him the most, Fernando “Boy” Pizan peacefully went on to be with the Lord on Wednesday, March 24th, 2021 at the age of 64 after a hard-fought battle with COVID. He was a beloved son, brother, husband, father, grandfather, uncle, and friend. He will be most remembered for his love of singing and playing the drums, being the funny guy with his endless jokes, and for his kind heart and generosity.
Fernando was born in Camalaniugan Cagayan, Philippines to Lilia and Antonio Pizan. He was the loving older brother to Danny Pizan, Roan Pizan, Robin Pizan, and Maria “Girlie” Pizan Sarco. The Philippines is where he would meet the love of his life Luisita “Lucy” Pasicolan. They would later on be blessed with their first-born son Christian, twins Rachelle and Rambo, and identical twins Liberty and Emerald. Together, they created a life full of endless joy and laughter but most of all, love.
Fernando emigrated to the United States in 1988. His journey in the US included Alaska where he worked on a fishing boat; Seattle, Washington where his parents and siblings ultimately made their home; and Brooklyn, New York where Fernando attended New York Allied Medical Institute to become a Pharmacy Technician. Las Vegas, Nevada became his forever home in May of 1997. For 17 years, Fernando worked at Express Scripts, formerly Medco Health Solutions.
Fernando was very gifted in music. He was able to listen to a tune and instantly play it back on the keyboard or guitar with ease. He played as the drummer for a band he created along with his friends for many years. His love for music was handed down to his children. Fernando and Lucy enjoyed singing karaoke and no party celebrated at their home was ever without singing and dancing. His retirement years were spent traveling around the world and making treasured memories with his dearest Lucy.
Out of all of the roles that Fernando had, being a grandpa was his absolute favorite and most cherished. He would do anything to bring a smile to the faces of his grandchildren. He will be greatly missed by Maya, Rocky, Hana, Lina, Aria, and Dylan.
