Mrs. Ruby was a fine Christian woman who loved her family deeply. She was a role model of a wonderful mother and grandmother to all who knew her and her Saturday family dinners were legendary. She is no doubt cooking up a family gathering now in heaven. Her legacy is her family and the love you all share. Hopefully you will contiue to gather often to honor her memory keeping your family bonds strong. She would like that I am sure. May God bless you as you grieve the loss of your loved one. She will be missed by everyone in the community. Sincerely,

Brenda & Tony Tumlin
