Dear Family, Your mom, grandmother and great-grandmother was such a wonderful, sweet spirited woman and my mom, Ruby Malone loved her so. She often talked of her and always would ask me at Church, when she was still able to go and had lost her sight, if Ruie was there. Your entire family are loved so dearly by our Missouri Street Church family. I totally understand what it's like to be in your shoes. I am always reminded of the long awaited day when we all get to Heaven, what a glorious day that will be. She is now rejoicing with her Lord and Savior.
Love and Prayers to your entire family during this time,
Doris Bridges and Family.
we are so lucky to have known you .....You will be missed dearly
Ms . Ruie was a very sweet person . Met Ms. Ruie when I was a Child when she worked at Bills in West Memphis with My Mother. She will be truly missed.
