Today would have been German's birthday and I was thinking about him. I decided to "google" his name. I am really sad to learn of his passing. I haven't had any contact with him for decades but he has always had a special place in my heart. I am sorry for your loss and feel you were very lucky to have him as a father and husband for so many years.

To Pilar, David and Dan my deepest sympathy in reading about your beloved husband and father. I will always have cherished memories of all of you. Our sons shared a wonderful childhood as friends and through their friendship I was able to get to know your wonderful husband and father as well as all of you. I only wish I lived closer to be able to pay my respects in person. My prayers will be with you as you go through this time of sorrow. I would love to hear from you Pilar if you still come to Manahawkin. Please feel free to get in touch. I live in Barnegat now but am listed so feel free to call.

Again with my deepest sympathy, Paula

I just want you to know how sad I was to hear of Docs passing. I just left the office where Nancy just gave me the news. You husband and father was a wonderful man. I had lung cancer and I put my life in his hands. I am now 12 years free because of his care. Doc always gave you his undivided attention and he had great compassion for his patients. I will never forget him. If anyone deserves the rewards of Heaven it is him.. He will be missed

you came back to see her when she got better because you had promised her you would dance a tango with her before she left the hospital. My thoughts and prayers are with the Ruiz family today and although saddened by his passing, I am happy to

I was so sad to hear of Dr Ruiz passing. He was my Oncologist until he retired. I remember my last visit to him, when he broke the news to me that he was retiring. I cried that day, as I did today. He was a very compassionate Doctor, who made every patient feel like they were his only patient. My prayers are with his wife and sons. God Bless you all.

My Dear Pilar,
Words cannot express the sad feelings in my heart today. Mark and I are sending our love to you and the boys at this sad time. God has certainly taken one of the best today. There must be a flood of angels waiting to take him to peace. As you know, he has been there for me through so many scary times, and always made me feel safe. I have never known someone who has saved more lives, and yet always made you laugh. He loved you so very much. Every
time he came in to the shop, he always said to" make something special for my
Pilar" He was so proud of his boys, and always ready to give you an update. I
only pray that he wasn't sick, and passed quickly. I am just so very sad. A huge
part of our community is broken. I will never forget when my mom was dying in
Fox Chase and all she wanted was to come back to SOCH. He was the only Dr.
she trusted. He had given me his cell number, and when I called, he said I am
scheduling a transfer. Bring her back to me. When I told her that, she was finally at peace and passed the next morning. I am sure she will be there along with all of the people he saved to welcome him into heaven. God bless you. Hold on to your beautiful boys. He will always be watching over you. He loved you so very much. I wish I could be there with you. I am there in spirit. Peg xoxo
