Pam, Sharon, and Susie I am very sorry to hear about your loss.
Since my return to the area, it was very enjoyable to spend time with Ruby.
Whether we talked about present times or old times on Wood st it was an enjoyable conversation.
I had know idea about her death until I tried calling her and got a recording that the number was disconnected.
I would have liked to have been at her funeral, with all the time I spent at the house on Wood St it was like my second home.
Sorry again for your loss.

Pam, Sharon, Susie: So sorry for your loss (for our loss). I feel the loss quite a bit also. Loved your mom. She was very special to me. A little edgy sometimes :), but I loved her in and through it. She had a way of looking at things that really made me think. I appreciated her love for music. Still remember when we were visiting at the Wood Street house watching your mom enjoy the Beatles on tv. What fun!! I ALWAYS felt welcomed around her. I loved her somewhat mischievous laugh. She will definitely be missed. May the Lord of peace bring you comfort during this time. Love all of you Wunnecke ladies. God's blessings to you and yours.

Loved my Aunt Ruby. She was quick with her wit and smile. I can picture her standing in her kitchen on Wood Street singing all the tunes to the latest hits. I thought she was so cool. We spent many many weekends together at Grandma Roraff's house on Market Street. So many beautiful memories I will treasure in my head and heart. Pam, Sharon, Susan - May God comfort you with peace that only He can give. Brian and I still smile thinking and talking about Uncle Harold and Aunt Ruby and you guys. We love you guys.
