Mr. Manuel, Manuel, Renee and Russell - We were so sorry to hear about Miss Ruby. She was such a sweet lady and she will surely be missed. She no longer needs our prayers now since she is with God, but we will pray for God to give you strength during this difficult time. Sylvia & Fred Keller

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Dear Renee and family:
I read about Ruby and had a good cry. Then I had to laugh when I remembered "the big purse." So much loss...However, it is a comfort to know that she is with the Angels now and I will never forget my friendship with Renee and her wonderful family. Love, Katherine Reeve 3819 Constance St. New Orleans, LA 70115 (504) 390-5053
