I have fond memories of Ruby. Ruby was a faithful witness of Jehovah, and she always had a beautiful smile, and she was loved by all who knew her. I worked with her regularly in the ministry, and she was very encouraging to me and my family. I look forward to seeing Ruby soon "When no one will say I am Sick" (Isa.33:24), and no one will have to die (Rev. 21:4). In heartfelt sympathy, love, and prayers. Clara Perry, Lytesa and Clarissa Addison, Andre's and Annie Torres Family.

I don't remember much of my childhood, but I do remember spending countless hours and days with Grandma Ruby playing card games, eating pecans, or going for walks. It broke my heart when she began to forget things one by one when I went to give her medicine at night. She may have forgotten who I was, but she still always managed to say the same thing to me almost every single time I saw her. I will always remember our time together. She is missed deeply.

My sincere sympathy for your loss.
Aunt Ruby was a sweet and kind woman.
I never had the pleasure to meet her in person. Our relationship grew through our many phone conversations.
I'm waiting for the day to greet Aunt Ruby into a New World when Jehovah’s original purpose for mankind will be carried out on the surface of the whole earth!
May you take comfort in knowing Aunt Ruby made a good name for herself and it is written down in the Book of Life. Until Jehovah makes all things new!
