Sherri’s  husband,  Jerry,  could not  be  present  for  the photo (Photo and article compliments of the Vail Observer).

When Ruby Hunter passed away in April of 2007, the Hunter family knew that they wanted to use at least a portion of their mother’s memorial contributions to purchase something special for the St. Anthony Westside Medical Clinic.

The family expressed their deep appreciation of the good care that Ruby received from Dr. Ervelli and his staff at the Westside clinic by presenting them with a monetary gift, and the staff decided that a planter to be placed just east of the clinic entrance would be a fitting memorial for Hunter. The cement planter is complete with an engraved nameplate reading, “In Memory of Ruby Hunter.”

When the family members -- Arlin and Mary Anne Hunter of Papillion, Neb.; Allen and Sandy Hunter of Westside; and Sherri Schurke of Denison -- gathered for a photo with clinic staff, they said the butterfly placed in the flowers by the employees is also a fitting reminder of their mother.
