Aunt Ruby, not a day goes by I don't think about you. I've dreamed of you for the last 3 nights and I realized today why. It's been a year since you went home to be with the lord and all the loved ones we lost before. I wish I could have been there with you. I wish I had of gotten to spend just one more day with you. I wish I had known I never would see you again the last time I hugged you. I would have held you a little longer and a little tighter. You were so much more than my great aunt, you were my mother. You did everything a mother does for me my entire life. I was so blessed to have you in my life, and there is such a big empty space without you here. I can't wait for the day I see you again. Until that day, I love you with all my heart and your memory will always be kept alive by me and my kids, I promise you that! Nobody can ever take you away from me again. I miss you every single day. I love you Aunt Ruby. Thanks for the signs, I knew you would keep your promise.

Aunt Ruby not a day goes by I don't think of you. I miss you so much it hurts. I know your watching over me and my boys but I'd give anything just to have 1 more day with you. I love you with all my heart and I can't wait for the day I see you again. I love you mama.

I remember Ruby being at Aunt Imogene's when me and momma would visit. She was always so sweet to me. Then when momma passed away Ruby found out that I didnt have the money to send flowers to Mom's funeral so she paid for them. When I tried to pay her back, she wouldn't let me. Such a sweet woman. I have very fond memories of her. Rest in peace Ruby and say hi to momma for me
