Yes, Ruby was truly an angel. She always brightened whatever room she was in. Even when we encountered problems on our river trip with them, she found a way to add sunshine to the event. She will be missed by all.

No words can express the sadness in our hearts when we heard of Rubys death. She truely was an angel on earth and took such good care of Travis. Some of his fondest memories are the times he spent at Mams and Paps house. She will be missed and
our heart will alway be filled with graditude to that bubbley happy woman that made going to work and leaving your child in safe hands so much easier. Our prayer and thoughts go to Lee and family.

No words can express the loss that our family has suffered with the passing of Ruby McNair. She was not just a mother, grandmother, wife, sister and friend, she was truly an earthly Angel. All that knew her were priveledged to call her family or friend. She lived a very rich life and everywhere she traveled she never met a stranger. I could search the world over and would not find ONE person that could say a negative word about her. She loved everyone and it showed, not just in her words but in her actions. She lived a very RICH life and what an exemplary way to live our own lives. Our family has suffered a great loss today, but Heaven has surely gained it's best Angel!

I love you and miss you dearly Aunt Ruby,

Always,

Angel
