We will miss you forever. Ginny Jordan and Ernie Grenier

DR VASQUEZ WAS MY HERO. HE WAS OUR PHYSICIAN ,FRIEND, AND I HAD THE PLEASURE OF WORKING WITH HIM AT NORTHRIDGE HOSPITAL. I MORN HIM AS I WOULD A FAMILY MEMBER. WE LOST A WONDERFUL PERSON AND HE WILL REMAIN IN OUR HEARTS FOREVER.

I extend my sympathy to the family of Dr. Vasquez. I had the pleasure of working with him as Chief of Staff at Cleveland Clinic Hospital many years ago. He was a great physician with a kindness and friendliness that touched everyone who worked with him. I am so sorry to hear of his passing. He will be missed by so many. Sincerely

Just found out that Dr. V left this world for the next. I remember our discussions in spanish at various community events and the advice you gave me. As a Professional Guardian who has more pro bono clients than those who could pay for my service, I honor and remember your philanthropy.

conoci en persona al Doctor Vasquez gracias por su valiosa contribucion a la comunidad latina se fue un gran ser humano que en paz descanse

My deepest sorrow to the family who have lost a man of incredible value, one who it is evident that he gave of himself without for a moment puting his needs first. I am certain that he is in heaven because there is no other place for someone with so much virtue.

I had the pleasure to know Dr. Vazquez while I was working in the various hospitals he covered. His passion for his patients, his good humor, as nurses he treated us as equals in the medical profession, listen to us, we have lost an exemplary person Heaven has gained a true christian that lived Jesus two commandments Love God and your neighbor as yourself.Nunca le olvidaremos, doctor.

Mel and I join the many friends of Elaine and Dr. V in sharing the sadness of his passing. A true community leader and gentleman has gone and we will miss his leadership and philanthropy.
