Rest in Peace sweet Ruby
April 28, 1923-August 4, 2007
Back in May, I posted this blog entry about my great-aunt Ruby, and was overwhelmed by all of your encouragement, support, and beautiful prayers. At the time, we thought she only had a few days, maybe weeks to live. However, she made it through the summer, and I just found out tonight that she passed away a few hours ago, peacefully in her sleep.
I will be heading to South Carolina in the next day or two for the funeral. Please keep my family in your prayers as we say goodbye to our angel here on earth. What a celebration there is in Heaven tonight of her arrival!

Hi Scarlett,
I'm sorry for your lost. You and your family are in our prayer.
Knowing nothing even a little about you, but I know you and your mother are both with strong faith and with that I'm sure your Great Aunt Ruby was also a woman with strong faith. Take comfort that she left in her sleep. She is in a place where no more pain, no more sorrows, no more tears.
It is said, to be absent from the body is to be present with Jesus.
God bless you and your family and we will pray for you and your family.
I'm sorry scarlett. I know God has his arms around you all holding you tight.
My thoughts are with you and your family. Sending you lots of love and hugs...

Scarlett I am so sorry to here about the passing of your loved one. Life can never prepared us for the loss of those that we no matter how we to to believe that it will. But I do know that God gives us a peace that passage all understanding, and He wants us to lean not unto our own understanding but to acknowledge Him and He will direct our path... With that said I want you to know that we will be praying for you and your family.
