I first met Ruby in 1956 when Dewey got me a job with Boeing. We spent hours playing cards and music with them. They were like parents to us and their sons Ronald & Mike like our kids. I remember Ruby always took her sons to church on Sunday. She was a wonderful person and was one that could tell me about my grand parents and others that I didn't know about. Ronald & Mike Y'all had a wonderful Mother. May God bless you and your familyl.

We spent many hours visiting with Ruby & Dewey and their sons Ronald & Mike. Both in Wichita, Ks. and Texas. Ruby always welcomed us with a smile. She was truly a thoughtful and lovely person. We will miss her but we know she is in a better place. Dewey was Winnon's first cousin.
We remember the good times we shared.

This was one of the sweetest people I've ever known, which has been my entire life. She was such a good friend to everyone, especially the Austin family. She will surely be missed.
