I know without a doubt that all those folks that Ruby either greeted, tended to, prayed with and supported in any way while she volunteered at the hospice center, welcomed her into a beautiful, soft place in heaven. Rest well Ruby, you deserve so much peace and joy.
Prayers to all of the family, the world lost a true, rare jewel.
