I am so saddened to learn of the passing of Mrs. Moore. You all will be in my thoughts and prayers. She always made birthday cakes for my grandson when he was a little guy. We all enjoyed her cakes so much.
I will be unable to attend the visitation and funeral as I will be out of town Friday.
I will be thinking of all of you as you are going through this very difficult time and adjustment without Mrs. Ruby.
May God bless you all.

Dear Joy,
Tonight my heart is heavy to learn of your Mother’s passing. I know she’s in Heaven with Mr. Everett, and that has to give you comfort. She was always such a sweet, loving lady, and she will be sorely missed. She made so many cakes throughout the years, you’d be hard pressed to find someone who didn’t know her and love her. May God comfort you in your hour of need. Love you.

I am so sorry to hear about Ms. Ruby’s passing. She was such a sweet lady and her cakes were the best. My family and I (I’m the granddaughter of Patsy Monks, who attended church with Ms. Ruby) thought so very much of her.
I am unable to attend the visitation and funeral but I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers. God bless you all and comfort you.
