Ruby devoted her life to caring for others. She was Director for the Friendly Rest Home, where she made it her mission to care for those who had "lived good long lives" and ensure their comfort at the end.

After retiring, she devoted herself to caring for her grandchildren. She gave the same dedication to her grandchildren that she did to her elderly residents. She showered them with a special love, meeting them at the bus stop everyday, reading to them, brushing their hair until it shone, and always being a ready and willing playmate.

The grandchildren especially enjoyed celebrating birthdays her way since she brought gifts for all.

We will miss her greatly, especially her smile, noted by a grandchild's friend as one of the top five best smiles ever. However, we find comfort in knowing the Big John is happy that she finally responded to his call, "Ruby, are you ready to go? Get in the truck if you're going with me."

The family wishes to thank Sylvia Beck and Duke Hospice for helping us give Ruby the type of care she showed to everyone in her life.
