One of the dearest ladies I have ever known. I will miss you more than any words can say. There are many hilarious moments over many years that will always bring joy to my heart!
When you lose someone you love, life is never the same again. Every day is different, but that doesn't mean that joy ends. You just learn how to share those
moments with a hole in your heart.
Rest In Peace Aunt Ruby!
