The memories I shared with her are some I will never forget, she was so selfless and it hurts to realize that. She is someone you could talk about anything to and the advice she would give you would completely change your perspective no matter the cause. So many key memories were made in the kitchen if you didn’t like a food she could make you like it , anyone who had her food would say nothing could beat it. It feels like yesterday I was eating ice cream with nene and paw paw it pains me that they’re gone now but deep down I know she was ready and I know she’s in a better place she really was a angel bestowed upon earth.

I am so glad I was able to come home and say good bye to a very special Lady. I wish I could be there for Wendy and the whole family, but unfortunately I cannot get back to Texas right now. I will always remember Ms Ruby's warm smile and welcoming hospitality from the first time I met them. It felt like I had known them for years after talking with her and listening to Mr. Curtis tell a story as only he could tell. I miss those conversations greatly, and will always miss Ms.Rubys hugs and beautiful soul. Truly she is watching down on all her family, and hopefully she is smiling beside Mr Curtis and Our Lord and Savior . We rejoice that you have been called home to God, but we weep for ourselves because we have lost an Angel who walked among us, but we will meet again one Happy day.

Momma it's going to be hard trying to live a normal life without you in it, but I want you to know that you were the sweetest soul and the best mother that any child could have ever ask for. Earth lost an angel and heaven gained one. My heart has a big hole in it now, but I know that you are with dad and Jesus now.
