I am so sorry to read this, my deepest condolences to Lawrence, her boys and extended family. Ruby was truly a
most kind and loving woman. My sisters and I will forever be grateful for the friendship she shared with my mom and dad so many yrs ago. They are all together now. xoxo

Im so sorry. Ruby was such a sweet, kind person. I was blessed to know her and be a recipient of her smile. It lit up the room.
Sister Andes was my favorite Sunday school teacher when I attended Bull Run Assembly of God. When I got married in 1993 I lost track of so many people but I would always ask my Aunt about her and how she was. My deepest sympathies and condolences for her husband, son’s, and extended family. May God give them comfort during this difficult time.
