Mrs. Ruby. How I miss you dearly. You were an amazing patient of mine and I always made sure your were taken care of. I just found out yesterday that you passed and it hurts me so much. I really cared for you and wanted the best for you while you were at the Brian center. You always told me how you missed your mom and dad and now your with them. I told you not to worry and they were with you always. Now, I know your happy and safe with your parents and God. I've only known you for couple months but I feel like I've known your my whole life. So sweet and kind you were. I will miss going to work and not being able to see you. But, I will one day see you again. Rip Ruby Gurley❤ Love your nurse assistant
