Sue, no words can describe how sorry I am for your loss. You and your family are in my heart and prayers. May God put Ruth in a special place where she will be able to watch over you and your family, the ones she loved and cherished.
How do you give a memory when you have 66 years of memories, music and dance recitals,Proms, Weddings, babies I could go on and on.
Ruth was an Amazing lady, that had a keen eye for Fashion and Design. In my eyes she was Ms. Better Holmes and Garden.
Ruth had many talents however the one that sticks out was knitting. She would knit sweaters for everyone in her family. This was family members only, with the exception of my Grandson Charles. He was 2 when she met him and he must of made an impression. She surprised me with a beautiful sweater for Charles. The sweater has been put away for a son or daughter that Charles may have. Yes it was unisex.
I am thankful for all the memories and for all the stories Ruth shared.
Sue, you and your family were blessed to have her in your lives so long.
Now she is with Larry, Bill, Nancy and Michaels ❤️
Ruth and I instantly clicked when we met at Reliance Insurance Company. She became like a second mother to me. She taught me my job and how to sew. The difference in age did not keep us from becoming great friends. We shared many happy times together.
Sue and family, my condolences for the loss of a great lady. Love, Jo Orsini
My prayers to bring strength, comfort and peace to your family during this sad time. God bless you all. With love, Betsy Radovich
Sue, so sorry to hear this news. You were a wonderful daughter. Knowing that she is no longer in pain has to give you comfort. You are the result of a pair of wonderful parents . Take care of yourself. Keep in mind my offer is still standing.
Ruth, I will never forget my time with you and I am beyond grateful for the impact you have made on my life. Thank you for your wisdom, smile, stories, kindness and friendship. Sue and family, I am so very sorry for your loss. I will always be here for you in any capacity you need. Thinking of you all at this difficult time and sending prayers for peace, comfort and strength.
