We will always have fond memories of Uncle Fortun and Auntie Ruby elegantly waltzing at our wedding and at many other celebrations. It was always a delight to watch them dance. We will miss you and your ready smile, Uncle Fortun, but we know you are dancing in heaven with Auntie Ruby. 💕✨

Uncle Fortun will be missed. I was always in awe of his stories and wisdom. He was very smart and a great story teller. I will treasure memories of his and Auntie Ruby’s visits and our visits to Ohio and Florida with them. It was always fun to be with them and our cousins. May fond memories help ease the pain my cousins are going through . Say hi to auntie Ruby and my dad. Enjoy paradise. Love always, Benjo, Len, Heather and Michael
