Hello everyone, I'm David, Ruben's youngest son, first of all I want to thank the people that attended the wake & the funeral, I also want to thank the people that sign this guestbook, & the people that donated to the cause.

My Dad is now at peace, a peace that he longed for but couldn't find on Earth, I do know he is in a much better state than we're in & I do know that thru faith we will meet again.

Thank you all very much & may God bless each & every one of you ina special way.
