"A la familia del Señor Ruiz. No conocía al señor Ruiz pero conocí a algunos miembros de su familia, sobre todo a Silvia y a Claudia en la escuela en Shenandoah. Lamento mucho oir de su muerte. La historia de su vida que leí aquí fue muy interesante. Se ve que fue un hombre que amaba a su familia y que trabajaba durante toda la vida para cuidar a ellos. Claudia and Silvia. I had never written a message like this in Spanish before. I hope I said what I intended to say. My sympathies on your loss."
