I've managed to meet quite a few people in my life, and I can honestly say there was only one Ruby! What a fantastic and loving lady! She was a second Mom to me, and the Esposito's were a second family as well. She was always there with a kind word and encouragment for me when I needed it. Oh, of course, sometimes delivered like a Marine Drill Sargent, but you always knew her heart and motives were pure. I will miss her immensely, and I am a better person for having known her. God Bless Ruby, Mike and the Esposito Family!!

When God handed out Personalities, Ruby got a DOOSEY! She loved to Laugh, and Enjoy Life. She walked to the beat of her own drummer and had to be admired for her honesty. I wintnessed her devotion to her family. She took the role as wife, mother and homemaker seriously, and did them to perfection. I saw a formidable woman that never let us get away with wrong doing at her home. Even though as a child, she was probably the first woman that I heard cuss, I admired her, I respected her and I loved her!

My deepest sympathy to everyone. Tete Ruby will be missed by all who knew her. Even though time and distance have taken us all on our separate paths we have our memories of her to sustain us. Her smile, laugh and great generous nature will be remembered by all. She was a beautiful lady indeed. May God Bless you all. May her memory be eternal.
