When I think of Aunt Ruby, I think of laughter and good times. She always had a smile on her face, and enjoyed lively conversations around a table loaded with home-cooked goodness. She was so proud of her family: her husband Frenchie, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren were her most prized earthly treasures. She loved you all so much, and gave freely of her most precious commodity: Time. As you continue her legacy of love and laughter, you will no doubt keep her memory alive and well.

Much love,
Gary and Janet Coates-Ball

When I see this beautiful face I have to smile. In the sixth grade I met her daughter at Deer Park Baptist School. She turned out to be my best friend ever. I think I spent more time with them than I did at home. These years were filled with fun and laughter and some crazy things too ( floppy hats and blowpops) Miss Ruby was right there with us along with loveable Frenchie. I love this woman and she loved me too. So many memories like when she discovered Mary Kay and we had to experiment with skin care....it truly was my second home. To Debbie I can't wait to see you but I didn't want it to be this way. Heaven Keeps Getting Sweeter! I love you Miss Ruby.....

Debbie, your mother was a very nice lady. She was so good to us and my mother.
Mom lived at Royal Oaks with Ruby before we moved her, she died in May of 2017
So our prayers go out to you and your family for your loss.
