I just found out about Ruby. She was a very special friend to my Dad, Levie, right up until he died in 2006. I send my deepest sympathy to her family.

Ruby always treated me like I was one of her own grandchildren. I will miss her very much but know that she is watching over our family now.

While I only had a chance to meet Ruby just a few times, I always enjoyed her humor, candor, and friendliness. Sorry to hear she passed away.
