I have not seen Reuben in many years but I have thought about him often and always thought that I would see him again. I never imagined it was going to be at his wake. My deepest sympathy to his entire family. I do know how special Reuben was and I will never forget him.

Dear Ethier & Federici Family,

Words could never express how sorry I am, and how difficult this must be for you all. I am still in a state of shock, and it is impossible for me to write something that could do justice to the friendship I shared with Reuben for so many many years. He was a true friend, and we have always been there for each other through thick and thin, good times and bad. I feel privileged and I am honored to have known him!! My thoughts and prayers go to your family during this very difficult time.

Love,

Chris
