Im sorry for your loss

Saundra L. Gardner, Esq.

March 19, 2021

God has reclaimed an angel that I called Aunt Ruby. The life that she lived spoke for her. She was unapologetically a follower of Christ and lived a life that exuded love and kindness for all people. I find solace in knowing that God knows her by name and in imagining the parade of angels that have greeted her with the warmest embrace. Rest In peace and in power my dear Auntie. Your life will forever inspire me to be better, to do better and to love more.

Love you always, Your niece, Saundra
