My Beautiful mother in law, I'm going to miss her more than words can say. She not only was my mother law but my best friend. We've shared a lot of years together. I met her when I was 14 yrs old and eventually married her son, Larry. We were married for 38 years... the best years of my life! He passed 10/13/2010. My beautiful mother in law shared a lot of laughs and loved our talks. Talking to her always made my day. She had such great words of wisdom and I took her advice to heart. She was always ready to listen to whatever I had to say. We've shared so many laughs funny stories and cried on each others shoulder. She told last Christmas we had together that I was the daughter she always wanted. She said it took me long enough to realize that I can still hear her voice telling me "Mary, I'm so thankful that God put you in Larrys life and your love for my son shows in your eyes and the way you take care of him." I told her that I'm the one that's blessed with amazing family like y'all. I'm so thankful that God let me be in this family. She told me "Mary talking to you on the phone I always get so sleepy!" I laughed and said "yeah, I know I'm boring." She laughed and said "no hun you are so pleasant to talk to, I really enjoy talking to you." The last Christmas we were together (2019) her words were "Mary, I'm so happy that you came to see me." We laughed, talked, and sung 'Sweet By and By'... she had such a beautiful voice. She loved singing and loved hearing others sing. She loved music and loved her family with all her heart. All she ever wanted was for the family to be together and love one another. She talked about how she missed her sons Larry, Keith, Greg, and her husband Ollie. She said "I never thought my kids would go before me" how her heart was broken. She missed her 3 sons so much. My beautiful mother in law was the strongest woman I know with such compassion for everyone. She would always talk about how much she loved the Lord and wanted to always pray and ask for his Guidance in all she does. She said "Mary hun all I know to do is pray and love Jesus and my family." She loved her grandkids with all her heart, she was so thankful for each and every one of them. I have so many precious memories of her that I will always cherish and hold close to my heart. I didnt get to visit her like I wanted to because of Covid, but keeping her safe was important. She is now were she wants to be with her sons and husband and most of all see Jesus and singing "Sweet By and By" in that heavenly choir. I'm so thankful that I was blessed to have Ruby as my mother in law going to miss her more than words can say. Thank you God for blessing me with such a wonderful mother in law . This picture shows,the love in her eyes her smile. My heart is broke because you are not here but in my heart you will always be with me. Love you more Than words can say See you later my mother my best friend 💖 ♥️ ❤️ Always mary
