Ruby was truly a ray of sunshine. I will miss her infectious smile and all the wonderful years of her sharing thanksgiving with our family. I'll never forget how we all fought over Ruby's pecan pie during those thanksgivings. I can remember Christina begging grandma Ruby to hide a piece for her before Mary hid the entire pie from everyone.

Ruby - you will always be in our thoughts and prayers. We love you.

Denise Graziani and the entire Gianola Family
