Ruby's son Bob is my brother-in-law and I couldn't ask for a better one.
I will really miss Ruby, although I didn't get to see her that often.

Nothing I could write could describe the type of person my mother-in-law was, but if I could be a tenth of the woman she was, I would be a fantastic wife, friend, daughter, and mother. I hope I can live up to that and live a life she would be proud of.
Rest in peace, and thank you for everything you've done. You truly left the world better than you found it.
