Cerina Fairfax, remembered by those who knew her as a devoted mother and caring dentist, was killed by her husband, former Virginia Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax, inside their Virginia home this week, authorities said.
Fairfax described herself as someone who loved “to read, run trails with
her energetic Vizslas, practice Bikram yoga, travel, and spend time with
her wonderful family.” She leaves behind an “enduring legacy of love and selflessness,” her attorney said.
Her family released a statement Friday saying this is an “unimaginably difficult moment” and asking for privacy as they navigate the tragedy.
“Our attention is on supporting one another,” reads the statement they
shared via the Fairfax County Police Department.
A dentist who took pride in her work and cared for her patients
Fairfax was a beloved and accomplished dentist, running her own thriving family dental practice, Dr. Fairfax & Associates Family Dentistry, serving
the Fairfax, Virginia community.
She graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree from Duke before obtaining
her Doctor of Dental Surgery degree from Virginia Commonwealth
University’s School of Dentistry in 2005, graduating magna cum laude, according to her practice’s website.
Fairfax enjoyed “all fields of dentistry” and focused on “conservative, comprehensive dentistry,” the website says. Throughout her career she
received several honors and awards, including the VCU School of
Dentistry’s Alumni Association Award for Outstanding Graduate of the Last Decade for her many contributions to the profession.
“As a clinician and alumna, Dr. Fairfax embodied the ideals of our profession—dedication to her patients, commitment to growth, and a deep
sense of purpose in her work each day. I know she was a mentor, role
model, and friend to many in our school,” a statement from VCU School of Dentistry Interim Dean Jeffrey Johnson said.
