Larry and I were very sad to learn of Ruby's passing. Ruby and I were friends from 7th grade on. Visits when we were in town and email kept us close.
Our sincere condolence to Phillip and Ruby's sisters and sons.

Sorry to hear about Ruby. Have known Ruby a long time. We were friends in the late 1940's at the old West Ward Grade School. She was a nice person and fun to be with.
