I am so sorry that I missed the notice of Ruth's passing We no longer get a newspaper so I did not know of her death. We met while volunteering at Serve City and became good friends I deeply admired Ruth and treasure fond memories of her. We stayed in touch by phone on a regular basis.When I could no longer reach her by phone, I felt that she had passed.The last time I called, I talked with Joe.
