Not sure what to say?

I am so very saddened by the loss of such a great lady, I hired and worked with Ruby at Kleberg bank, I loved her like a mother, we used to laugh and have fun times. She always brought a smile to every customer she waited on, I will truly miss her.
I used to kid with her, and say Ruby Marrou, where are you. Such a sweet little kind woman.

Just found out about your mom. I am so very sorry to hear of her passing. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you!

May God wrap His loving arms around Ruby's family giving peace, comfort, and strength.

I am saddened to hear of the shocking news of the loss of such a sweet and kind lady. Everyone that knew her said the same words about her. My love and prayers are with you all, her precious family. May God provide you guidance and love during such a hard time. She will always be by your sides and in your hearts. You are her legacy.
