Ruben Senior Killingsworth was filled with Heartfelt LOVE . 1993 I was very young in my 20's and lost my own Grandparents. One Special day he told me. " We will be your Grandparents " You are now a Killingsworth . " At Christmas they always gave me a card and 25.00 dollars every year. I may not have blood line but what he said was everything. " Your a Killingsworth"
So grateful I was there for him .

My Tata was an amazing man and a role model to me. He showed true dedication to my grandma and to all of our family. Tata, I'll miss you but also know that I will see you soon where you'll be waiting for all of us in heaven above.
I love you,
Kathy

Dad, I love you so much and I will miss you terribly. You were the absolutely most wonderful father anyone could want. I never knew of anyone who met you and did not immediately like you. I was so proud of you.
Thank you for a wonderful life full of memories and love. I know where you are right now and I'll see you later. I am so glad you are no longer suffering.
Love you and miss you.

Ruben you were one heck of a man. About 30 years ago Ruben and Sara built a house next door to us. Right away we knew that they were a Blessing to have there. What a neighbor, he became so special to us. My children and grandchild looked up to him, he was like their Nino. Always willing to help with everything for anyone (that is if he wasn't on the roof fixing something or mowing the yard). We will miss the evenings we would sit on the front porch and talk for hours. The stories & history that he would share. We feel Very Blessed that Ruben was apart of our lives & he will be truely missed. God Bless You Ruben, you may now be with The Lord, fly free of pain and watch over us all. LOVE YOU RUBEN see you again someday.

Tata Ruben, as I know him, was one of the kindest, most generous men I have every met. He was truly an example of what a man, father, and husband should be. I will miss him.
