Dr. Caceres administered physicals to employees of what was then Ernst & Whinney in the early 1980s.

As he spoke to each patient, his hand never left the computer keyboard. I was astonished, as personal computers were not widely used at that time.

Dr. Caceres was a true pioneer and a gentle and dedicated soul. May he rest in peace.
