Cardiology has lost one of its greatest characters - Professor Jorge Pinto Ribeiro, a good "gaucho", who had many articles published in Brazil and major international journals.
Jorge was not only a good cardiologist and great researcher; he was particular and loyal to the best principles of Science, Character and Friendship. All who worked with him, either at Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul or the Brazilian Society of Cardiology, are witnesses of how Professor Jorge defended quality and persistently pursued scientific truth. But Jorge was not only a good doctor and researcher - he was a nice person, great friend to his friends, had a lot of energy, curiosity and will to live. He vigorously defended his principles and never sacrificed ethics and to all these things, he added his great role as father, husband and friend.
Jorge, you are and will always be sorely missed here.
