Ruben Andrew Sepulveda, aged 52, a 15 year resident of Benbow and familiar face about town was involved in a horrific accident on the 101 fwy, colliding head on into a redwood tree which had fallen across the highway on May 10th. Ruben sustained major injuries in the collision. (https://kymkemp.com/2021/05/

Ruben remained in critical care for about six weeks but sadly he was unable to overcome the the amount of trauma he had suffered. The family would like to thank the first responders and emergency personnel who worked so heroically to extract Ruben from the wreckage. A celebration of life will be held at the Shelter Cove Community Club House on July 24th, 3-7pm. All are invited. There will be a buffet, open bar and live music. Just the way Ruben would have wanted it! Please join us in saying good bye.

So sorry he didn’t pull through. Condolences to the family.
Sorry to hear he passed. Not sure why my gofundme donation was refunded though. Couldn’t they still use it?
