She was a light that will not be forgotten. Her kindness and personal warmth is cherished and remembered by many.

My husband Greg and I were both patients of Dr. Rubakovic, and we thought the world of her. She was so kind, generous, and I always felt better after a visit with this wonderful doctor. My sincere sympathy to her loved ones. A very sad loss.

Our thoughts and prayers of her family during this time of bereavement.
