Not sure what to say?

I want to thank everyone who came to my mother's funeral and/or graveside service; and also to those who sent messages, cards, flowers or in any way shared their memories of my mother. They all mean so much to us!

I want to especially thank the Sandy Regional Care staff, as well as the hospice staff for their care of my mother. My mother was always friendly, kind, respectful and ready for a good story and a laugh. I suspect that her sunny outlook on life–even in her difficult...

Ah Sally,
Those childhood memories are precious. I remember your mother as warm, happy and full of life. It always felt good being in your home, and I know that had a lot to do with the warmth your mother gave the house, as well as your own friendship. Bless you and your family!

Dearest Sally, I guess I was 5 when I met you and your family. I loved Ruby. I picture her drinking tea out of these old beautiful cups with a golden sheen. We had so much fun as kids! I remember Floyd listening to the Giants games on the radio. When i hear it to this day I think of those days. I remember how we idolized Linda in her teenageness. And then there was you Kenny... Ruby is a big part of my childhood memories. I wave goodbye for now..

To Ward, Linda, Sally & Ken
I was four years old when I first remember Aunt Ruby and Uncle Flig coming from --at least what was in my mind-- the magical and distant land of Lafayette. The double-wide mobile home was still in two; we walked in between the halves and peered through the opaque plastic to see the house she that she would make her home.

As a matter of ritual, I drive down 300 East every time I go through Parowan and bathe in the memories Aunt Ruby provided for me: ...

I will miss you very much grandma Ruby. I know you are in a better place now but I will always remember all of the wonderful memories I have us spending time together. I will always miss and love you.

We at the Mingo Branch in the Sandy Regional Care Center, enjoyed Ruby very much. She had been a faithful attender at our meetings and we will miss her. Our condolances to you all.
Love
Mingo Branch Workers

Grandma you are finally with grandpa again after all of these years. I will miss your sweet face and beautiful smile. I also have a lifetime of memories to remember all the fun times we had together. I love you grandma and will see you one day again.

Just read Aunt Ruby's obituary. I loved the picture of her when she was young. This is the way I remember her, with that long beautiful blond hair. She was a great lady. Love you all.

Last of the "Puffer" kids. All really special cousins. I`ve seen Ruby`s name on the quakeys on Parowan mtn all my life. Please accept my condolences.
