Nancy,
I am deeply saddened and shocked to hear of Rube's passing. Words fail at expressing my gratitude for all that you and Jim had done for my Mom. I pray that the Lord gives you the Grace and strength you need to get through this loss. You and your family are in Gabrielle's and my prayers. Eternal rest grant unto him O Lord, and may perpetual Light shine upon him. May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed, rest in Peace, Amen.
