I have many fond memories of visiting my Aunt Ruby growing up both when she lived in Kalamazoo, Mi and in Wyoming, Mi. She would always tells us stories about when she lived in North Dakota. We loved hearing them.  Then when she moved to assisted living we loved visiting her there and listening to her tell us about old times again and things she remembered about our family and me that we did and had long forgotten, but she did not. She was always smiling and joking. We loved that about her. She will be missed.  Becky and Grant VanHeukelum
