Donna, Michael, Steve & Granny:
Take consolation in the fact that your mother is in a better place. She ran a good race. She produced 3 lovely, intelligent individuals and instilled some of her amazing qualities in each one of you. Ruby was truly "special". She could make you laugh until you cried. We sometimes did not talk for a while, but when we did we laughed the whole time and that is what I will miss most. I feel very blessed to have had Ruby as my friend and I know we will laugh together again!

The McCrary family is very special to me. Mrs. McCrary has always taken me under her wings like a daughter. Her advice and candid wisdom will last a life time. I often said, "I would love to travel and entertain just like Mrs. McCrary!" The legacy she left with Donna, Micheal and Steve will be their guiding light. She was loved.

May God Bless the Entire McCrary Family!
