I am so sorry to learn of your loss. May your many shared memories of your loved one bring your family comfort. The scriptures remind us that Almighty God is close to those who grieve; "...He saves those who are crushed in spirit." (Psalm 34:18) My sincerest condolences to all of you.

We were deeply saddened by the news that Ruby Lee had passed. She was a fantastic neighbor for all of my years in Cedarbrook and on Sunset Drive, and a great friend to my parents for my whole life and well before that! My dad always had many stories about his "Schoolfield Days", and almost all of them featured those Waller girls in some way, shape or form, and always in a good way. Ruby Lee had a wonderful sense of humor. I cannot recall a time with her in all of my years that she ever failed to deliver some funny or witty comment--no matter the situation.

We hope that that you will take comfort in the certain knowledge that the grief and sense of loss you are feeling now will be replaced--in time--with many loving memories of all the "good times"had, and of a long life well led. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you--and of course, with Ruby Lee.

Sincerest Condolences

So many of our group from Schoolfield High have gone home, but I am sure they are all visiting with one another. I will miss Ruby Lee. She is at peace now.
