I was so saddened to hear of the death of Ruby. Ruby and "Huby" Dunn were my two favorite chaperones on Christian Singer tours. She is, by far, one of the sweetest ladies I have ever known. I remember her as a close friend of my own grandmother, and as such, she felt like an extension of that love. I know that she and Grannie (Alice) are in heaven having a WMU tea. My heartfelt condolences go out to Betty and all of her family.

What precious memories I have of Mrs. Ruby! Always a smile on her face which evidenced the joy of the Lord she carried with her every day. What sweet reunions are happening in heaven as I know she was received as a good and faithful servant.
