El Dr. Torres fue más que un profesor; fue un guía, un mentor y un pilar fundamental en mi camino académico. Durante la elaboración de mi tesis en el programa de consejería, su apoyo fue invaluable. Siempre tuvo un compromiso genuino con sus estudiantes, desafiándonos a dar lo mejor de nosotros mismos y a alcanzar nuestro máximo potencial. Su paciencia infinita para revisar y corregir cada uno de nuestros borradores era impresionante. No importaba cuántas veces tuviéramos que rehacer una sección, él siempre encontraba el tiempo para orientarnos. Incluso, en sus días libres, se tomaba la molestia de ir al campus los sábados para ayudarnos con la redacción de nuestras propuestas para el IRB, demostrando su verdadera vocación por la enseñanza y el desarrollo de sus alumnos. Nunca olvidaré el día que me vio en mi primera reunión de facultad. Con una sonrisa llena de orgullo, me dijo: "Estoy muy orgulloso de usted porque llegó a alcanzar su meta". Fue un momento que llevaré siempre en mi corazón. Al compartir la noticia con mis compañeros de tesis, todos coincidimos en el gran impacto que tuvo en nuestras vidas. Lo recordaremos con mucho cariño y profundo respeto. Gracias por todo, Dr. Torres. Su legado vive en cada uno de nosotros. Descanse en paz. 🕊️💙

I was truly saddened by the news of the passing of our great colleague and Dr Torres. He was an inspiring human being and was always available to help when he could. He loved his students and had a deep passion for teaching our students at Ana G Mendez. My deepest sympathies and sorrows to the family and loved ones. Just know he touched my life in a positive way and he will be missed greatly. RIP Dr Torres - Prof J Irizarry
