I hated to hear of colonel Diaz ball's passing. I was actually talking about him tonight and decided to search to see if he was still alive and unfortunately I found out he was not. A great surgeon and a good man. Tonight I was telling 
a co-worker about an experience I had where he did a surgery on me in El Paso Texas at William Beaumont. I had at least 30 days r&r. I told him I had a retired veteran uncle in Sacramento California and another uncle in Portland Oregon. I asked him if I could go visit them on my break. He told me he would bring it up on the staff and let them vote. Six of the seven voted if I wanted to go I could. I took off and a couple of days later after kidney surgery my uncle would not let my wife change my bandages. He said I belonged to the military and they were going to do it. He took me to the clinic at the local base but I had no records with me. They called Colonel Diaz ball and explained I was there. He has to talk to me and then when I was on the phone he said in a loud voice what are you doing in Sacramento? I told him. I asked if I could go and you said six of the seven of you voted I could. He busted out laughing and said we never dreamed that you would even attempt it after kidney surgery because you would be hurting so bad. LOL I hate I was not able to catch him before he passed away so perhaps he would remember my southern South Carolina accent but my Spanish is good enough now that Mexicans do not believe I'm an American but from Central and South America. My wife is from Bolivia.

       My former husband, James Gilbert Campbell, and I lived across the street from Dr. Fernando Diaz-Ball in Frankfurt, Germany in 1961-1963.  Dr. Diaz-Ball was a physician in the Army.  I remember him as an outstanding person and as an outstanding physician.  I also remember his precious little boy, Fernando, who played with my boys, Kirk and Clay Campbell.
      I have thought of the Diaz-Ball family often over the years and recently decided to google Dr. Diaz-Ball.  I am very sorry to see that he is now deceased.  I would like to know where his son, Fernando is now and how the family is doing.
     With my deepest sympathy to you for your loss of this wonderful man.  Dana Dunbar King (formerly Dana Campbell)
