To Carol and Glenda,
I have fond memories of your mother welcoming members of The Greater Travelers Rest when we would attend joint services on the 1st Sunday in January at Beulah. No one could do it like Ms. Ruby! I had the pleasure of hugging her about 3 weeks ago, after not seeing her for years, but didn't know that would be the last hug. May God continue to comfort you, and remember, "Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal".
Sincerely,
Trudy Robinson

To the family of Mother Ruby Johnson,
The Board, Council, members and staff of ROSA (Reaching Out to Senior Adults), Inc. would like to extend our deepest sympathy to you in the passing of your beloved Mother Ruby Johnson. Mother Johnson was one of the early representatives from Beulah Baptist Church in ROSA and served as a volunteer and exercise leader at our Annual Outreach Day event. She was a wise, witty, and outgoing lady with a zeal for living! She personified our mission to empower senior adults to live abundantly by embracing information and knowledge that would enhance them spiritually, physically, intellectually and financially in their golden years as God promised. We are thankful to God for sharing Mother Ruby Johnson with us during her earthly sojourn and we pray that you take comfort in knowing that her soul is now resting in the bosom of Jesus.
