In defining a successful life, Robert Louis Stevenson unknowingly described Dr. Mark Rubens, an esteemed orthopedic spine surgeon in San Diego who, at only 35 years old, passed away on May 22, 1991, following a tragic scuba diving accident near Point Loma. Stevenson wrote: "That man is a success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who leaves the world better than he found it . . . who looked for the best in others and gave the best he had." Yes, Dr. Mark Rubens lived well, sharing much laughter and love with his cherished wife, Judith (formerly Hamburger) — whom he met in his home state of Michigan and married almost 10 years ago — and his 2 dear children, Andrew, 6, and Laura, 4. They settled in San Diego in 1989 after many cross-country moves during Mark's long years of medical training. From the University of Michigan Medical School, to the University of Florida, to Eastern VA Medical Center in Virginia, and finally to Baylor University in Houston, Dr. Mark Rubens worked hard, always striving for perfection and enjoying the challenges of his pro- fession despite its rigorous demands. Widely known for his self-assuredness and strength, Mark was nevertheless "always a softie," recalled his mother, Eileen Rubens, of West Bloomfield, Michigan. She and Mark's father, Ben Rubens, attended his funeral on May 24 with the greatest sorrow, but also the greatest pride. "I'm overwhelmed by all the support," said Mark's father. "So many people here for my son." Among the standing-room-only crowd of mourners at El Camino Memorial Park were Mark's brother and of- fice partner, Dr. Larry Rubens, Larry's wife, Margo, and their 3 children, Ryan, Mikey and Veronica. Mark's sister, Karen Rubens, of West Bloom- field, Mich., and his brother and sister-in-law, Allan and Lola Rubens, of Ann Arbor, Mich., also joined their family in mourning. The aptness of his name — for Mark really made his mark in a brief lifetime — was illustrated by the crowd who ranged from close friends from San Diego, as well as cities across the country, to his many respect- ful colleagues, acquaintances and patients, some of whom ascended the hills of El Camino in their post-surgery braces. The service was officiated by Rabbi Martin Lawson of Temple Emanuel, who poignantly discussed the particular difficulties of los- ing one so young and vibrant, with so much to offer the world. Rabbi Lawson reminded mourners that many people who live to old ages never accomplish as much as this man did. The same sentiments were echoed by Dr. Larry Rubens and friend Maurice Maio, who shared their thoughts publicly as well. Rabbi Lawson concluded by reading a moving letter from Judith Rubens to her husband. It opened with these words of gratitude: "Thank you for touching my life the way only you could have." In that, Judith spoke for everyone assembled to bid goodbye to Dr. Mark Rubens. In Loving Memory Of Learn CPR ...
