Please accept my deepest condolences to the family and friends of this special soul. I didn't know Mr. Ruff for very long, but he was a very friendly and caring man. I would always see him walking Simpson Pl or Smith St and we would stop & chat about the little stuff in life - the weather, my dog (who he always said reminded him of Brindle), the neighborhood, Peekskill back in the day, and just regular neighborly chit chat. He was definitely a cool cat - always put a smile on my face to see him. He's told me some stories. I am saddened by his loss, and the knowledge that I won't have those chats anymore. I am sorry for everyone mourning his loss. Please find comfort knowing that he made a difference, he was special, and his memory lives on. Rest In Peace.
