  1. I have nothing but wonderful memories of Aunt Ruby……….I loved her so very much. I can still see her and Mom (her sister Hazel) sitting on the dock and riding in the boat with their hair flying……………I remember her smile, her kindness, her flowers and the great love she had for her sons..Steve and Gary. I will greatly miss our visits, our conversations and just everything about her. She was one classy lady – she always looked like a lady anywhere we went………………………I am so very sorry for your loss Steve and Judy……….I miss her too! Love, Brenda Comstock
