Not sure what to say?

It was a honor and a pleasure to have been in Mrs. Ruby’s presence and seeing her huge smile. I will miss her summoning me over to sit with her at your family functions. May your hearts be soon filled with joy and happiness again and may you find comfort in the memories.

you will be miss love you Aunt Runy

I will truly miss Ruby. We have been sisters in love for 47 years. That makes her my family. I enjoyed her stays at our home and us going shopping together. Ruby truly loved to shop and especially when we found bargains at the garage sales. Farewell, my sister, I will see you on the other side. Rest in peace. I will continue to take care of your baby brother.

My Dear Aunt Ruby, I don’t know what to say, I am still in shock, I keep thinking back to the last time I talked to you and I told you that my Sisters and I was going to get together and come visit you and you said, y’all just come it doesn’t have to be no special occasion just come, Oh how I wish I would have listened ! Needless to say we didn’t make that visit. I remember meeting you when you first moved back to Waverly years ago, then later Phyllis came and we have been like Family ever...

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

Our deepest sympathy and condolences to all of the families. GOD bless you all!

With Heartfelt Sympathy to the family.
I will always remember your Mom’s laughter and the kindness she showed me during my childhood. The days and nights that I spent at her home she always treated me like a daughter. Miss Ruby will always be in my heart.
