RIEP Richard,
Ruben was a good man with a kind heart. All those years on the road, he made sure that we were all doing alright.
He had a tea, a remedy for every illness or a meal if he felt we needed it. He always gave positive encouragement and strength. Touring would not have been the same without him in the band.
After one of our many conversations he presented me with the Scofield study Bible as he said I wad reading the wrong one.
I will always treasure it and his memories.
Rest in peace my friend 🙏🏽
To his loved ones: Blessings and strength to you. God will see you through this difficult time.
You are in my thoughts and prayers 🙏🏽 ❤️

We travelled many roads of many countries together & ate from your pot wherever we laid or head to rest. You made sure we were fed with only the purist of foods made with the purist intentions. Health & spiritual wellness was your daily goal. Jah has watched you read your chapter a day and seen the path you’ve made for the people around you to do the same. Your intentions have always been with the father first and he has decided you are too holy to remain on the earth. Knowing this I can move on knowing you are at peace in heaven. My selfish desires to speak with you and eat from your pot will have to wait until we meet again. Rest Ruben. Love.
Mi bredda.Walk good. Jah Jah.. Until the next chapter.
Celebrate the life and times.
No reason to mourn.

Yes Ras.. Will always be remembered
I I remember meeting Rueben for the first time at his restaurant in New York with Buju and the Crew. Hiis warm welcoming smile was present on that day and remained whenever we would meet up . . It was always great to be in his presence. Sleep on Ben, you will truly be missed.
