Re: Belfast City Council set to name park after Ruby.
Thank you Billy for giving us an update on the Ruby Murray Village Green project. I will put my thinking cap on, and also have a word with Bernie about ideas. I happen to be reading this today on the anniversary of Ruby's birthday, she would have been 88 years old. PS I am sure you meant to type 5 r...

Re: Ruby Died today well after midnight here in NZ
Always a sad time of the year for me because in 1996 a week after I had told my mother in hospital that Ruby had died, she herself passed away on Christmas Eve. I still remember very well those Christmas days in the 50s when the loveliest present anybody could give me was the latest recording by Rub...

Well Done and Thank You, Timmer! All working well so far, on PC and smartphone, but I will let you know if I find anything not quite right.

Re: Library reopened
I have checked the third section called Miscellaneous Images . Page 1 Item 5 can be deleted Page 4 item 8 is not as titled, and can be deleted because Item 7 is a better copy of that picture Other than that, there are a few pictures which would be better if rotated. I think I can do this, but at the...

Re: Library reopened
Hi Tim, the Preview Feature certainly works very well indeed for pictures and Text (.txt files). For documents, music files, and videos I get offered to view or download, and there is not really any difference in the time it takes to do either of these things. A preview would be useful, but I guess ...

Re: Library reopened
Thanks for the button! OK, I have checked out the first section called Album Covers . All is OK except Page 1 Item 2 and the title does not match the text. This could actually date back to an uploading error, but in any case, the picture is of the sheet music for Goodbye Jimmy Goodbye, and is alread...

Re: Library reopened
I have tried out the new search facility too, and it all seems to be working well. I particularly like that when you type in a word, such as Teddy, it searches the whole site and comes up with a document with the lyrics, as well as the mp3 of the song. Only one small point, there is no Search button...

Re: Library reopened

Re: The Passing of Ruby's son Tim
Hello Mellymel, welcome to this website and forum from me too. I too found Tim to be a very pleasant person to meet and speak with. The last occasion we were talking was a Skype meeting when he was marooned in Lanzarote at the start of the Covid pandemic, which was not very long before he sadly died...

Re: Teresa Hart - Timmer's mother
It is with great sadness that I have to tell you that Timmer's mother Teresa has sadly passed away. She was in a care home, and although Timmer had to travel from one side of the USA to the other to get there, he was able to visit her a short while ago and play her some Ruby Murray records, which he...

Re: Rubys Birthday
Remembering Ruby. She was once likened to Vera Lynn, who sadly died last year at the old age of 103. If only Ruby had had better health, she might have still been around. Her memories in the form of records, photographs and news cuttings still live on here on this tribute website.

Re: The Passing of Ruby's son Tim
It is indeed a sad posting about the loss of Tim. He together with Bernie and Julie have done so much to help keep alive the memories we all share of our Dear Ruby. Some years ago, when he was a singer, he prepared a tribute show to Ruby, and Bernie and I went to the first such show on the South Coa...

Re: Happy Christmas
Thank you for the good wishes. This is just to let you all know that the website has been given some action by Timmer just before Christmas. He told me he was going to do this so I decided to wait until all the work was finished before putting the Christmas Home Page back up, so as not to give him a...

Re: Guinness Book Of World Records
Thank you John, this is good news among all the bad news we have had for 2020. It is good to know that when I was 15, I chose to be a fan of someone whose world records would still be standing all these years later! What a grand achievement!
