In memory of...

Grama Ruby was a cornerstone in our family. She loved with her whole heart. Every ounce of her soul. She was proud of her family, loyal and committed to each and every one of us. She soaked up every moment with us. Every laugh, every gathering, every new and precious life and new child we brought into our tightly knit family. Grama savored all of it.

She would not want 'any fussing over her', as she would put it. Grama would want to make sure we were all ok now. At peace, as she is now.

She would want us to remember how blessed we are to have the memories of her long life spent with each one of us too. 

And to hear the whisper of one of her most famous sayings ' Oh my Heavens'. What a sweet sound that must sound like from her lips to God's ears now.

She is so very loved by each one of us and the memory of Grama Ruby will live on in the stories of our hearts and lives. Always. 

Find peace and rest in that thought. Until we meet again, rest now Grama and truly Live with Him.

My Great Grama Ruby passed away on a Tuesday. She was so loved and will be missed beyond words. My family gave me a sweet and precious gift of her wedding ring upon her passing and that will be truly cherished by myself. Thank you for that from the bottom of my heart.I read the above at her funeral along side my sweet family and a dear close best friend of mine , who have all been so incredibly supportive and loving through all this. Again, thank you all for your sweet words, thoughts and prayers.
