Born in: Guayama, Puerto Rico
Resided in: Commack, New York

Aurora Ruiz known to everyone as Lolin. Came to the US from Puerto Rico at the age of 14. Moved to Germany with her brother, where she met her late husband and love of her life, Rey. She raised 5 children and helped raise 14 grandchildren, 3 great-grandchildren, many nieces and nephews. She drew strength and companionship from her sister and sister in laws (who were her sisters), her church community, and neighbors. Lolin gave her love openly and fully to her family and friends. Her greatest joy was caring for all who knew her; always with food and love. Lolin will be missed and will live on through her family, who knows she is at peace with her Rey.

  17. candleLolin, I’m very saddened by your departure. You were like a big sister to me, and I remember the good times we had when we lived together in North Carolina and Germany. It was in Germany where you met Rey, and I remember that courtship as if it was yesterday. I especially remember the beautiful smiles you and Rey always had! I will keep you and your family in my prayers and in my heart. Until we meet again. Love, Frank

  18. May God Bless you Aunt Lolin and your family. I remember those days back in North Carolina and in West Germany in the 60’s. You were big sister to all of us and an integral part of our family growing up in those memorable days. I’ll always be grateful to you for always finding the time to see me up in NY when in the area; talk to me on the phone especially during a very difficult time following the loss of our daughter. We will always be grateful for the love and compassion you provided to us during this terrible time. You are a wonderful Aunt to me and now that you are reunited with Uncle Rey, Mom, Dad in a very special place above -without pain, may God bless you with eternal peace and happiness. Until we meet again someday Aunt Lolin.

    With all our Love!
