I want to Convey my sincere condolences to The Ruiz family on your loss of Joe Ruiz. Met Joe 58 yrs ago, by chance. We both played HS Baseball, Joe got Wells HS and I, Austin. In 1967 he contacted me to play for the Puerto Rican Congress led by his father, Caribe. I remember Joe for his Sense of Humor and Cordial personality. Although it´s been many years since we last met, He will always represent and Wonderful time in my life. May the Good Lord Keep him in his loving grace

Little Joe it was a delight to be with you at Wells! I'm glad you married and had a great bunch of kids and grands! God bless you for your infectuous laugh and warm, loving personality.Shalom and Godspeed until we meet again!

Joe was a great friend to all who knew him. He was my Summer league coach who taught me how to have confidence in myself. Our team´s trip to Puerto Rico is a memory l will always cherish. My deepest condolences to all of his family and friends. Our Lord must have needed someone to manage His team. He will be sorely missed, but the Lord´s team will win the pennant! Dan Cwiak

Deepest condolences go out to the entire Ruiz family. My memories of Joe run deep with years of interaction at Wells High. His bright, outgoing personality made my day every time we met. May the memory of his contribution to his people, to all people, be a blessing and sustain us in our grief.

I am so sorryfor your family's loss, yet praising God that Joe was s man of faith. He now rests in the arms of Jesus, is whole and healthy. So sorry we were unable to attend the funeral in person.

My Buddy Joe was the spirit, energy and driving force of our Congress baseball teams in the 1960´s/70´s. Always talking, laughing and encouraging. Just a wonderful, wonderful guy.
