Dearest sister... our prayers are with you. Watch over your family/loved ones as you always have, but from a better place. Your life here was not easy, but I know that you are in a high place now with the Lord. I am sorry I was unable to be by your side in the final hour... but I thought & prayed for you endlessly from my bed while we were apart. Not a day will pass that you will be forgotten from our hearts. Love Ruby
