Loved Ms Ruby! She was so good to my children. Adam, Abigail and Andrew. We would go visit our Nanny Mick and she was usually there visiting. Always a gift or something good to eat for us. She holds a special place in my heart. May God hold the family close during this time of life

I was your first grandchild and you always made me feel special. I loved spending time with you. I'm sorry over the last few years I haven't been there alot. You are and always will be my guardian angel. I will miss you terribly, but I know we will see one another some day. I know that God took you in his arms and welcomed you to the Kingdom of Heaven. Rejoice my angel, rejoice. Till we meet again, I love you MaRuby.

What a special place Mrs. Ruby holds in my memories! In the Home Extension Club meetings that I and my little sister attended with our mother, she was a part of the quilting and the community service. She was never very loud or talkative, but was such a vital and sweet part of that group of ladies. They influenced my life with their moral standards and their work ethic. I remember the year we had a community costume party. Mr. Otis and Mrs. Ruby were so funny in their costumes! I remember the night she fell in the bathtub and Mr. Otis called my mom and dad to come help him get her up. She was mortified of course, but it was just an example of the way this community loved and depended on each other. I am so blessed to have known her and her sweet family. God bless you all.

My sweet grandmother, there are no words to describe the empty feeling I feel right now but I am finding comfort in knowing you are above rejoicing with the angels and with our heavenly father. You may be gone physically from this world but you will always be with me in my heart and as our guardian angel. There is just no love like ours and how special of a bond we had. Thank you for all the wonderful memories and for the legacy you have left behind.
Till the day we meet again fly high my sweet angel,
Brittany
