Juan, Rest in peace! you were like my brother in far away land! It is very hard for me to express myself in English how exactly I am feeling. I will cherish all our memories together. All the fun days in lab. You taught me how to make poker face and hide my emotions. Trust me Juan this is very difficult time can't hide my emotions. May god give the strength to Amy and your family to cope. We were lucky to have you as friend. Baisakhi and Jahar

I was so sad to hear of Manuel's passing. He was a great person and a cherished friend. I will always remember the first time we met in Ponta Grossa, in his yellow buggy. So many memories will remain deep in my heart and in the hearts of everyone who knew him. My sincere thoughts and prayers are with you. You have my heartfelt sympathy.

I have had the chance to have Manu as a close friend from childhood to our twenties in Ponta Grossa. Words cannot express how great is was to be around him at all this time. He was so funny, vibrant, friendly, helpful and kindhearted. He will always be remembered as an special and unique friend.

Condolence From Guilherme Martins - Guile e familia

É difícil acreditar. O Manu é sem dúvida especial. Todas as lembranças que temos dele são com ele rindo e todos em volta também. Era impossível não ficar de bom humor com o Manu por perto, pois sua bondade e alegria eram contagiantes. Tive a sorte de compartilhar minha infância, adolescência e juventude com ele e as boas lembranças são inúmeras. Que Deus o tenha querido amigo, sentiremos eternamente sua falta. Amy, Unfortunately, we haven't had the chance to meet you. Be sure our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, We are sharing the burden of this great grief. May God bless you.

Manuel foi um dos melhores amigos que tive e nunca esquecerei dele. esta junto de Deus pois ele precisa de anjos e o manuel é um anjo que desde pequeno quando nos conhecemos era uma pessoa muito mas muito bondosa e carinhosa. Nunca esquecerei dele e que Deus conforte a familia Palomo. Resta lembrar do seu sorriso e de seu amor por todos e que um dia nos reencontraremos meu amigo. Vai com Deus amigo

Condolence From Virginia Issaris Seré

The name "Manuel" means "God is with us" or "he that was sent to earth by God". And that was what Manuel was: an angel. He was the most cheerful, pure and kind person I have ever known. His smile, his twinkling eyes are still present in my mind as I write these words. It is difficult to accept the fact that God took him back to heaven so soon, for as selfish mortals we would have liked him to have stayed longer. There is not one day in which the thought of him having passed away doesn't trigger an endeless flood of tears, for him, for Amy and for Cristina, Jorge, Pablo, Martin and Antonio. May God grant us the serenity to accept the things we cannot change, the courage to change the things we can, and wisdom to know the difference. I loved my dear cousin tremendously. I know he is watching us wherever he is. Amen.

Though I only worked with Juan during his short time at CCF, he was certainly one of the kindest, most caring physicians I have ever worked with. I'm sure this comes as no surprise to his family- He always had a positive attitude, was always helpful and hard working. I am shocked and deeply saddened to hear of his passing. My thoughts and prayers go out to his wife, Amy, and all of his family.

I only had the pleasure of meeting Manny a handful of times, but his warmth made me feel like we had always been friends. I feel I got to know him, and the love he and Amy shared, through Amy's online photojournalism. The world was their playground and every day was an adventure. They embraced the beauty of each day they shared together, whether it was a picnic in Cleveland or the first nice day of the year on the shore in Long Island. Manny will truly be missed by all who were fortunate enough to meet him, and I pray that the love and happiness he and Amy shared will give her the strength to get through each day.

Condolence From Catalin Perju, MD

Thu, 17 Nov 2011 22:07:30 EST

I met Juan a while ago, when we worked together for almost two years in BTNC, Cleveland Clinic. We were born in the same year and same month, and we followed almost similar career pathways; when my former colleagues from Cleveland Clinic told me the sad news, I was shocked and I could not believe it.. Juan was a close friend and a very good colleague. I will always remember our morning coffees, our morning jokes, his warm and friendly personality. Juan was always there, when someone needed his help. This is the kind of memory we would all like to leave behind. But not so soon. Not so unfair. Dear Amy, my sincere condolences to you and Juan's family. Yours, Catalin Perju

I only got to work with Juan for a short time, but it is clear that he made an impression on everyone who met him. The long line of people who came to pay their respects at his memorial ceremony all repeated the same thing: he was a singular human being, kind, dedicated, personable and selfless. My heart goes out to his family. He lives on in all of us, whenever we remember him.

I can not begin to express how sorry I am and how highly I think of Manny. When I first met him he was immediately warm and kind and I could tell right away how smart, generous and supportive and loving of Amy he was. Amy- Manny, yourself and your families are all in my thoughts and prayers.

I am going to miss Juan a lot. He was a hard working, dedicated and compassionate doctor, but mainly he was a great friend. He was a very easy going person and the 6 months that we shared in the hospital looked like a lot more, as we rapidly developed a friendship. Since the first day that we met at CCF (during an orientation lecture) we found that we had a lot in common, even more after he told me he spent most of his life in Brazil, like me. I will miss his jokes, his smile and his way of making everything easier. I am sure he is in a great place now. Rest in peace, my friend, and hope to see you again.

I have known Manny for roughly 5 years and I am honored that he was able to be such a special part of my life. He married my sister and they shared a love that could be seen, as well as felt when you were with them. I learned from their love, to hold on to those you love with both arms, and when you love- love with your whole self. Every breath is precious, you can never have too many. Each moment can be beautiful, if you only take the time to see it. Manny was a most wonderful person and humbly touched the lives of many. He would go out of his way to be helpful to anyone who was in need, no matter the need. I am proud to call him brother. I only wish we could have had more time with him in this life. He was destined for greatness. I have no doubt that he is still. I pray to him to continue to watch over and protect my sister, guiding her now, not by her hand, but by her heart. Manny, you have left an imprint in my life and on my heart. Your life and spirit will not be forgotten. I take the wonderfully happy memories of you with me as do many others. It is because of the love we all shared for you, that your spirit will live on. We will see you again...

I met Juan when he first came to Cleveland Clinic as a research fellow. I helped him with his visa. He was a friendly, enthusiastic person, very friendly and appreciative. He was dedicated to his research, often I would pass him on the skyway or in the parking garage on a weekend or long after everyone else had gone home. I was so pleased that he was able to come back to Cleveland Clinic. And I'm very sad to hear of his passing. My heartfelt condolences to his friends and family.

You are in our thoughts, your friend, Steve.
