With Sympathy and Prayers in the Loss of Your Mother
Ruby and Family,
May the precious memories of your mother, and the strengthen of God keep you during the hours, days, weeks and months to come. A mother is one of God's Gifts to His children and through her the love, kindness, respect, understanding you have come to know is one way she will always be present.
May the Love and Peace of God keep you now and always,
Patricia Randolph

Ms. Elnora was one of the most beautiful and kindest women I have ever known. I've known her family since I was a little child because my Mom made sure I knew them; they were neighbors. Your father James was very important in our life also because he helped my parents in transportation needs. I will never forget her for the love, understanding & kindness she showed.

Though we never met your mom, Bev and I have come to know how very important family is to you. Loss is never easy ... no matter the age. Please know that you and your family are being remembered.

Our hearts were sadden when we heard of the loss of your mother. We know she is in heaven with your dad and I know he was happy to see his Pudding again. She will be missed be all. God has taken another one of his precious children and there is no more suffering for her up there with him. You all are in our thoughts and prayers and if you need anything do not hestitate to call.
