  2. The legacy she left behind with all of the children, grand-children, great grand children is amazing. I have so many fond memories of Aunt Ruby. I remember people showing up around meals and she’d feed anyone that would show up. There was always enough for everyone. Love you Aunt Ruby, you surely gained your wings. My thoughts are with everyone.
