To all of Ruby's Kids, grandkids, and greatgrandkids,
I know this is a hard time for all of you, I do not know anyone who loved to talk about and be around her family more than Ruby. She was someone who really LOVED her kids, and I know she will be greatly missed by all of you. Dad and I just want you to know that we are thinking about you and send you our love.

Donna, I am so sorry for your loss. It is so hard losing a parent. You were such a support for me when my dad was sick and passed away last summer. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers and let me know if you need anything.
