Dear Dan,
Janet and I always loved our visits with you and Ruby. She was a great lady and she always looked like a million bucks when she went out. We pray that you will be comforted in her loss.

Dear Dan,
I am so sad and shocked at Rubys' passing. I have some great memories of both of you. We had some fun parties with the Eastman's Evans & Early group. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
With love,
Your Secretary (and "Denmom")
