Ruben Dario Westin

Ruben (Ruby) Westin, 66, passed away peacefully on April 30, 2024 surrounded by his family. Ruben was born September 9, 1957 in New Jersey to his late parents, Ruben and Virginia.  Along with his parents, he was preceded in death by his wife Aggie, brother David, and is survived by his four children, Dawn, Judy Marie, Brittany and Jonathan; his four grandchildren Aubree, Zayn, Oakley, Chayce; his sisters Blanca and Linda, and his nieces, nephews and cousins who he loved dearly.   He made his homes in New Jersey, Georgia, and North Carolina. 

Professionally, Ruben worked as a director in Regulatory Affairs for product safety in New Jersey and Georgia, travelled domestically and internationally, and actively participated in conferences world-wide on environmental safety.  He enjoyed his jobs and giving back to the community in positive ways.

He is widely known for putting others before himself, and fully enjoyed making others smile with his quirky jokes.  All who crossed his path only have good memories of him.  Ruben loved the Jersey shore, Florida, the theater, and traveling with his family to Disney and any amusements park he would find  along the way. His family was always his #1 priority. He loved spending every minute with his family, friends and dogs.    

A funeral mass will be offered at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church, 2844 Village Drive, Fayetteville, NC 28304, on Friday, May 3, 2024 at 11:00 a.m.
