Ruth Cuadrado's Obituary
Ruth Delia Cuadrado De La Paz, 69. daughter of Ruth Delia De La Paz and Antonio Cuadrado, was
born in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico. Ruth grew up and completed her studies including her nursing
career in Puerto Rico, but here she fulfilled herself professionally, and learned the true concept of
family with her friends and co-workers.
She married her husband Jesus Rivera also known as "Purruco" as she used to call him. Even though
they didn't have any children of their own, she played the best role as a mother because all her friends' children were her children. Her and "Purruco" were happily married for 26 years until he passed 12
years ago.
She spent her entre life at the service of others in her very professional
role as a nurse. A woman with a strong temperament but a heart full of
love for everyone. Sometimes complicated and at the same time, loving.
She was a very special woman who left footprints in all the hearts of those who knew her.
