Ruby Johnson Obituary
Dr. Ruby Lee Johnson Sunrise - January 4, 1922
I have worked in the fertile earth and planted a garden, so I know what faith is.
I have seen the morning without clouds after showers, so I know what beauty is.
I have sat before a wood fire with family and friends, so I know what companionship is.
I have seen the miracle of spring, in fruition of summer, and the beauty of autumn followed by the pause of winter, so I know what life is. And because I have perceived all these things I know who God is.
Transition - June 15, 2011
