John J. Ruby, Jr., 62, passed away reluctantly
RUBY, John J., Jr. Passed away October 30, 2013, at the age of 62, reluctantly. Fiercely loyal and infinitely generous, he made one hell of an impact on the world. ... For anyone watching, it was clear that John was the tenth man at Fenway last night as his Red Sox clinched game six of the World Series at home for the first time in nearly a century.

Thursday nights'll never be the same
"Ida was a wonderful mother and homemaker, and life-long Red Sox fan. She instilled many important values in her family, one of which was to make the community part of her family, and her family part of the community.
"Her doors and house were always open to those who were hungry or who had no place to stay. People from as far away as China, Germany, Italy, and Russia have graced her table and knew of her hospitality. Thursday nights were her most favorite time for family and friends to gather as she hosted her spaghetti and meatball dinners with multiple home made desserts."
