Although I did not know you Mrs. Ruby, I have the pleasure of being friends with your granddaughter Janay and she is such a great person! My condolences are with the family in this time of need.

I am the diamonds glints on snow, I am the sunlight on rippened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain.... RIP Ms Ruby.

Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home...and the day is past and gone, at the river I stand, Guide my feet, hold my hand, Take my hand, precious Lord, Lead me home.
