Mrs Ruby Johnson will be missed but not forgotten. Thank you for always taking me in as another daughter as part of the family, feeding me, offering me anything of comfort. You introduced me to my first "Wings and Things" back in the day. I shall never forget. We will be praying for the Johnson family and her extended loved ones during this difficult time. We must remember to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Rest in peace Mrs. Ruby.
Sending our deepest sympathy and condolences 💐
Sending love, thoughts, and prayers to the Johnson Family during this tough time.
I don't even have the right words to express how heartbroken I am. She was like a mother to me, and I will always be grateful for the love, kindness, and care she showed me. Her warmth touched my life in ways I'll never forget, and a part of her will always stay with me. My heart is with the entire Johnson family during this painful time. I pray that you find strength in the love she gave, comfort in the beautiful memories you shared, and peace in knowing how deeply she was loved. May she rest in eternal peace. She will be dearly missed and forever remembered.
Ruby was a Woodland Park and Spencer High young lady who exemplified lady like tendencies to the young girls in our area. I knew her through her family member, Albert James Bush. We have lost a great person who exhibited grace and style without getting loud. Rest Well Ruby. We will pray for your husband Clifford as well. Toby
