Janice and family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I will always remember Floyd from Tuesday night Bible Study with John Cook. He had such a sweet spirit, a winning smile and a love for the Lord! He is in the presence of the Lord with my dad now! Hang onto the memories every single day. They are priceless.

Our heartfelt sympathy and love to Janice and your wonderful family. Your visits to South Dakota were always extra special. We are so sorry we were unable to attend service and share memories of how special Buddy was and how grateful we have been to have shared special times with all of you. May God comfort you and give you peace. May memories of love, laughter and hope gently replace the sadness and emptiness that exists today. God bless all of you now and always. We love you! Aunt...

Buddy always had a smile on his face. That Ruby smile. May God continue to bless his family left here on earth for each of them was special to Buddy. He made people feel that they were special during the very moment they were sharing.

God Bless you, Janice, for you two were soul mates.
Hugs, peace,...

I had the pleasure of knowing Floyd for several years and I have never met a more kind and generous man. He always had a smile on his face. My heart and prayers go out to his family.

I met Floyd through his grandsons Bradley and Chris, and their parents Mike and Michelle never forget the times him and his wife were there at the wrestling tournaments always a great smile and friendly conversation. First memory that pops in my mind is him and Chris with root beer floats in their hands and all smiles pocatello Idaho.

Oh Mr. Ruby...you will be missed. You always brought such light to our day when you walked in our office. I knew everytime you came in to sit at my desk, that I was about to hear something that would not only make me laugh, but would make me think. You were the best story teller, with the funniest outlook on things. We will miss your smile, your friendship, and best of all your infectious laugh. We are so honored that you were our policyholder for so long. God bless your family, and may...
