My heart is so broken. :( I hadn't seen Ruby since 2006. I moved up here to Longview, Washington. I worked with Ruby at Lowe's and she was like a mother to me! She loved my children and she had many pictures of them-she was always happy to have! She told me she kept them on her refrigerator! She always called me "Brenny-Bren" and I loved it! I regret not being able to see her and I will miss her forever!

I will never forget Ruby's Smile & the Big Hug she gave me every time she saw me. Her Love for the Lord Jesus & her Love for People lit up her smiling face. She was a bright colorful bird flitting from person to person on Sunday at church. Giving Hugs,Smiles..saying to everyone I am so glad to see you and truly meaning it from the bottom of her heart! I know she is in Jesus arms. I have no doubt. His loving spirit lived in her so strong. She told me many stories about chances she got to testify to people about Jesus. She is a child of the King and has gone home! I shall miss her until I see her again someday!! Love you Ruby!

It was a honor to know this very beautiful woman, who I looked at and couldnt help but smile every time I saw her. Ruby worked for me at Lowes and I have so much respect for this woman, she could work circles around anybody, she was one of the best with customers, and other employees. I loved her dearly, I will miss you!

Ruby will be very missed. I knew her through her dachshunds. She was such a bright, happy person, it will be sad knowing that I'll never see her again. Heaven is a lucky place to have Ruby!

I am so sorry to hear about your Mom's passing. I seen her not very long ago at Safeway and she introduced me to the gals and said this is my other daughter Shannie. I have wonderful memories growing up with you all. She was always so bubbly and fun and she worked so hard all her life. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Ruby will be missed by everyone that she ever came in contact with, she was truly an angel on earth. My kids still remember her teaching them in junior church. I walked thru Ssafeway the other day and could hear people talking about what an amazing woman Ruby was, her crown must be filled with beautiful jewels! Rest now Ruby, at the feet of Jesus, we will all miss you!!

My grandma was the most amazing, loving, and true person you could ever know. She had this way of making people smile, laugh, and just feel great about themselves. She worked enough for 6 lifetimes, and on top of that volunteered teaching sunday school at the church. If I could be like anyone in the world I would chose to be like her. She always had the most amazing outlook on life and Id say she lived it to the fullest. My grandma meant the world to me, and Ill always remember the way she sang, laughed, and lit up any room she entered. I will always remember the time we shared and she will always hold the biggest place in my heart. May she rest in piece. I LOVE YOU GRANDMA!

She was the most funny and amazing woman I know. I remember coming over when I was little and playing with all the dogs she had and helping her around the yard. She was always there for me when I needed her the most. She will always be in my heart and with me where ever I go in life. Grandma I love you with all my heart and will always be thinking of you. I will say goodbye because it does not mean forever, it just means I will see you later on. Love you with all my heart.
