Obituary
Send FlowersHis Necklace Was His Life
Adam Ruhalter wore symbols of the things he cared about on a chain around his neck.
There was a small mezuza case for his Jewish heritage. A miniature drumstick for his love of music. An F for Fern, his wife. Pictures of his children, Danica and Ethan. And an eagle for strength.
The necklace was not long enough to hold pictures of all of the children in Plainview, N.Y., but they belonged on it. Their parents remember Mr. Ruhalter from Saturday morning soccer matches, running from one sideline to the other to cheer on both teams.
Even if they were losing, Mr. Ruhalter would yell, "You're doing a great job! You guys are outstanding! What a great game!" said Arnie Price, a friend.
Mr. Ruhalter, 41, had given up dreams of playing the drums professionally and made a career in finance at his wife's request, as a controller at Cantor Fitzgerald. But he found ways to be a wild man, at parties and on the sporting fields.
"He died with very valuable things, valuable things in terms of his life," his wife said. "He had his children around his neck."

Another year without you in the world because of evil. The evil that is here, yet again. I pray you are sending signs to your wife Fern and watching over your children. You made this world a better place. Rest in Peace.

Adam we can't believe it has been 22 years. You are remembered by John and I often, especially when he reminisces about the good old days with you. Always in our prayers, as is your family. RIP

I wish I had the honor of knowing Adam. I met Alan and Jeffrey years ago at the meat market and My cousin once removed, Aaron, was one of my professors many years ago as well. Each year on 9/11 I mourn the loss of my second cousin and grieve for the family. I am thinking of you.
