I am so sorry to hear about Aunt Ruth, unfortunately I had not seen her in several years. She always had a fun and lively heart! I loved her laugh and her silly antics.... though my heart is heavy, I also rejoice that she is now reunited with Uncle John... my condolences to Bob and family and the nieces and nephews. I know they were the light of her life. Blessing, Donna Gray Grams
