Ruby always made me feel like family. As a child growing up to the man I am today, I could always feel her love. My condolences to her family and friends who had the privilege of sharing life's journey with her.

Carolyn Holland and family sorry for you loss. My Mother Julia Soles Mathews spoke of Miss Ruby often and how much she enjoyed shopping with her when was in BC Moores. I believe we spoke about the Wise family tree and our possible connections several years ago. We will be thinking of you and the family during these very difficult times.

Amelia, I was so fond of Ms Ruby, in my business experiences with her I found her to be a sweet lady who always wanted to be sure that she was doing things the right way. She could sometimes speak with "matter of fact" in her voice but with a smile on her face that would let you know that she cared about and respected you. She was so proud of you and Jo Carol and would always brag on her girls. I know you will miss her very much. She was a special lady. May the Lord Bless you and Give you His Comfort.
