Ruby enjoyed travelling, attending community theatre productions and dance recitals, gardening, keeping a clean and tidy house, crocheting, babysitting her grandkids, baking "gramma muffins" and was well known for her famous cherry cheesecake. She provided tender love and support to her family and was always willing to help her daughters with various DIY projects!

As an expression of sympathy, donations to St. Mark's Lutheran Church in Wellesley or the Alzheimer's Society would be appreciated.
