E Pluribus,
I remember seeing Oswald shot by Ruby. I had not just left the room. Maybe that’s where I got my obsessive habit of gluing myself to the tv whenever something monumental happens.

Anecdote: When Ruby was hospitalized with his terminal cancer in Dallas, the FBI bugged his bed. His sister came from Chicago to visit and Jack barely whispered "Give Hershey the business."

The FBI immediately went through every file on the Hershey Chocolate Co. and its executives and its foundations for weeks and weeks.

Ruby died and was buried in Chicago with his funeral at the Original Weinstein Bros. on Peterson Road. His childhood friend and Weinstein's owner Herschel Weinstein oversaw everything to be certain it was a safe and fitting memorial. Jack's sister made certain that Herschel i.e., "Hershey" got the business.
