Dear Luba, You and your husband James have had such inspiring lives packed with adventures and love that I can only say it's time to rest a bit before embarking on your eternal adventures together.

The rest of my life when I think about love, I'll think about you.

Luba, you will be missed. You were always my favorite Dancing Partner at the Tavern. Take care my friend. Tell Jimmy, Tom , and Amy that I was asking about them. I'm going to miss you, but I'll always remember what a kind and good person that you were.
