Dear Fr Fernando,
I was recently sorting through piles of
family photos and came across the attached colour photo that I would have taken
of my late mother, Marie Reading, together with Fr Ruiz at the time of our day
visit to Casa Ricci in 1990.
At that time, Fr Ruiz was getting around in
his motor cycle and he left a deep impression on me regarding the work he was
doing. My mother had made donations to Casa Ricci over the years.
At the time of our visit that day, in which
he also said Mass, I suggested that he be very careful on his motorcycle.
In an complete expression of faith I can still remember that he replied
to me “If God wants me to continue to do his work—he will protect me”.
What a wonderful man of GOD!
Bless you all.
Regards,
Adrian
