Dearest Ruby, on potentially your last trip eh? Was not something similar said when you and Bert ceased motor homing? We're assured this's the sweetest and who all may be up there awaiting your arrival.. Sincere condolences & deepest sympathy to the families . As always you'll be comforting and consoling one another and though Ruby is no longer with us she'll forever remain in our hearts & memories.
