So sorry to hear about your mother's passing. Haven't seen all of you in a long time. Fond memories of your mother. You could tell that her family was precious to her. God bless her soul. May all of you continue on and live your lives in her memory.

I, Don, used to live one block from Ruby in Dayton OH back in 1952 and 1953. Back then we neighborhood teens used to all meet at Quillings neighborhood store. After I married we used to visit with Woody and Ruby and their then two little girls many times. Ruby loved to dance and so did those little girls. NCR moved us to TX in l972, but we have kept in touch all these years through Woody. Our thoughts and prayers go to
all the family. Ruby will surely be missed by everyone.
