Ruffin, I am so sorry to hear about your son. I never met him personally, but we sure talked about him enough at the LSU games. I didn’t know you had also lost your wife. Take comfort in knowing that they are with Jesus. Trust in the Lord and thank Him for letting you have them for as long as you did. I am praying for you and your family. May God Bless You.

Ruffin's zest for life, sense of hospitality, love for his home state and loyalty to LSU are all unmatched. He made Ruffino's a home away from home for his family of customers. Ruffin was the ultimate people person who made everyone feel appreciated and special. A trip to Baton Rouge will never be the same for me. May God bless you and your family...Your friend Chris Wallace
