Darci SaccoI have just now learned of Ruble's passing, and OH! What a flood of memories it has brought back! You were most definitely my second family, and always made me feel like one of your own. Over the years, you have all been safely tucked into the "family section" of my heart. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this sad time, but what a wonderful reunion between father and daughter that must have been! I love you, Diana and Paul, deepest condolences to you both and also to Nick and his family. Love, Darci
