I'm sad to discover today about the passing of Dr. Cruz. I remember cracking up at his "Dad" jokes - always delivered in a quiet voice behind an impish smile. I remember him caring for his lawn. I can still see him carefully surveying his work - dressed in an old, long-sleeved shirt with the sleeves un-buttoned and flipping in the breeze. Mostly, I remember seeing how much he cared for his family and friends. It was a blessing to have known Dr. Cruz.
I had the privilege of working with Dr. Cruz at the Surgery Center Lorain. He loved music and he loved to tell jokes. He always made me smile. He was a wonderful man, and his passing is a great loss to all who knew him. Rest In Peace. Have a Hershey Chocolate Candy Kiss when you reach the pearly gates! Cyndi Bailey
"On behalf of our TSC Family our love and prayers are being sent to all of you. In the past hour since we have heard of Dr. Cruz's death we have shared wonderful memories, reflected on his silly jokes and reflected on the gentle and loving way that he took care of all of his patients and us. Dr. Cruz was the kindest, most soft spoken and gentle person that any of us have worked with and we only have wonderful memories. We were all blessed to have know him, worked with him and been able to call him our friend. We wonder if he will be telling God jokes as he reaches the gate to Heaven. Love from all of us at The Surgery Center."
