Ruby, you were and still are like a mom to me, From first meeting you and the family ,you all welcomed me like we knew each other for years.
The love and laughter you shared so freely will forever be priceless to me.
Heaven got an amazing angel back when the Lord took you home, now you can be that strong amazing woman and watch over us all while being hand in hand with the Lord and Lloyd.
God love this amazing woman , bring peace and comfort to the family as they walk on this new path of life, hold them in your comforting and protective arms ,catch them when they stumble or fall during these ever so tender days they face from the loss of such an extraordinary woman .
Lord Jesus may Ruby sit at your feet each day in your kingdom of eternal life, until we see each other again one day you will be missed and loved dearly, in Jesus name amen
