Fred and I have been friends since 1965 when we worked for the Navy at Point Arguello Naval Base in communications. We played cards and hunted together for many years in Wyoming and California. We spent our first three months retired, housesitting their home in Lompoc. We really miss Ruby! We always looked forward to receiving Ruby's handmade Christmas and birthday cards, she even made us a pillow in remembrance of our wedding, and we still have everything she made. It is a privilege to have known her and Fred for over 60 years since I first met him. Our sincerest condolences to Fred, David, Mark and Lorrie and all the rest of the family. We really hope Fred is doing well.

I always looked forward to receiving one of Ruby's handmade Christmas cards and saved every one of them since I've known her and worked with Fred. My sincerest and deepest condolences to Fred, David, Mark and Lorie.
