    Dear Family,
    Ruby was a great person and I’m so glad I knew her and sang with her. I have many great memories of spending time with members of her family – whether it was getting my hair cut and working Chiefs concessions (thanks Karla,); Sweet Adeline singing and dancing (thanks, Marie); sharing Barbershop and New Year’s Eve gatherings (thanks, Dennis); directing a granddaughter in Young Women in Harmony (thanks, Chris) and sharing in long lasting friendships (thanks, Doni and Kari). She has left behind quite a legacy of beautiful people and her memory will live on with me, through them. Thank you, Ruby!
