Well don't think I'll ever have another friend like you Ruben. We laughed a lot and drank a few but you always showed respect went it came down to it.Hanging out with you I knew I was safe and in good company no matter who showed up or who showed out I knew you wouldn't let nothing happen to me because you were a true friend to me and I'll miss you until I see you up there. Rest in peace my long time friend
Brother,
Losing you has left a silence in my life that nothing can fill. Being the last sibling now feels heavy in a way I never understood before. It’s like a piece of my world is gone, and I’m learning how to stand in a place that used to be shared with you.
Cancer may have taken your body, but it never touched who you were—your strength, your love, your presence. I carry that with me every day. I hear your voice in my memories, I see you in the little things, and I hold onto every moment we had.
You weren’t just my brother—you were part of my foundation. Growing up, we shared laughter, struggles, and a bond that can’t be replaced. Now, I carry those memories alone, but I carry them with pride.
Being the last one here doesn’t mean I’m alone—it means I’m the one who gets to keep our story going. I promise to honor you in the way I live, in how I love, and in how I take care of the family. I’ll be strong, even on the days I feel like breaking, because I know that’s what you would want.
I miss you more than words can ever explain. But I’ll keep you close—in my heart, in my thoughts, in everything I do.
Until we meet again,
I love you always.
—Your Sister
As I think back on all the memories we got to share together…I think to myself how blessed was I to have had you as my grandpa/father figure. You truly were an amazing person who always made everyone smile. I hope you know that you are loved so much and will be missed by us all.
I had the pleasure of knowing Ruben over 15yrs 🥹 I can tell you when we all get together Ruben myself and that Jerry Zaruba Oh its all fun and games and I can tell you its not for the weak. 😂 Ruben was a real stand up guy, he really could have been a comedian. Im really going to miss Ruben 😢 until we meet again rest easy playa.💔🙏🙏🙏
