\n \nA CATARROJA woman who lost her husband in the Valencia flood disaster is trying to find the person who took the last photo of her partner.\n\n\n\nThe image of Jose Ruiz Torrecillas showed him clinging to a fence pole on Calle Joaquin Escriba on October 29 before being dragged away by the flood water.\n\n\n\n“It would have been between 7.15pm and 8pm,” said Jose’s wife, Susana.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJOSE RUIZ\n\n\nOnce the waters subsided, Jose Ruiz was missing and Susana, accompanied by her mother, tried to look for him over the following days.\n\n\n\nHis body was eventually recovered.\n\n\n\nDuring one of their searches, a person showed her a photo he took with his mobile phone of a man who could have been Jose Ruiz.\n\n\n\nHe was wearing a black tracksuit jacket with white motifs and was clinging to a fence.\n\n\n\nSusana said: “Tiredness and tears did not allow me to see well, but my mother, who was with me, recognised him.”\n\n\n\n“Because of our state, we did not ask for a copy of Jose’s photo,” she added.\n\n\n\nShe has since been trying to find the person who showed her that image.\n\n\n\n“It’s the last photo of my husband alive and I want to have it,” said Susana.\n\n\n\n“I would like to keep it as a memory of my man.”\n
