As we prepare for our May 10 author luncheon with Adriana Trigiani, our hearts turn toward memories of our dear friend, Rebeca Ruiz-Ulloa, who passed away a year ago, February 26, 2021. Rebeca was a part of Passaic Neighborhood Center for Women since before the Center opened its doors in 2013.
Rebeca was a tireless advocate for the Center, and assisted us in so many tangible and intangible ways. She was an integral part of our Advisory Board and an energetic force on our luncheon committee. Nothing seemed impossible to Rebeca. If she didn't know how to do something, she probably knew someone who knew how to do it! She even recruited her father, Dr. Rene Ruiz, who passed away in August 2021, to help us translate our strategic planning surveys into Spanish.
It is an understatement to say that we miss Rebeca. We extend our continued prayers to Rebeca's husband, Luis, her mother Osaida, her family, and the staff of the Diocese of Paterson, where Rebeca served as Diocesan Architect.
May God continue to bless everyone who endeavors to serve the families at Passaic Neighborhood Center for Women, a ministry that was so dear to Rebeca's heart!
