My Dearest Ruth,
It's been a whole year since you've gone home. I know you are enjoying your painfree, peaceful, happy time with the Lord and all your loved ones whom you have joined and whom have joined you. I just wanted to let you know that I think of you often and miss you a lot....but, I know you know that!
Love & Hugs,
Pam

My Dear Friend Ruth, only you and I know what we have been through together and forgiveness got us each through. I'll always remember when I first met you and thought to myself "what an inspiration!" I'll always remember when I had a full-time position in my dept. (reception) and begged you to take it so you could have your much needed benefits! I also remember the time when I had some of our Freeman gentlemen go over to your house and install railings on your spa so that you could take a dip once in a while to relieve the arthritic pain you were always in. I'll never forget the day you called me and asked me to pack your things and send them to you. It was then that I knew you would finally get your wish....to go home. You were ready years ago but now was your time. I can picture you dancing from cloud to cloud and am so relieved that you are free from pain. Thank you for all you've done for my family and I. May God keep you in his comforting arms. I Love & Miss You, Pam

Ruth hired into Freeman shortly after I did...to the Telemarketing Dept. She inspired many by her work ethic (and long commute!). She always said to smile for her and celebrate her dancing in heaven. Ruth...I smile for you. Rest in peace...friend.

My prayer warrior Ruth...I know you were ready to go home a long time ago. But in the time of your absence, many of your Freeman family gathered not only to pray for you, but we also reflected on how strong you were. How you managed to do what you had to regardless of your circumstances. YOU have set an example of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness and long suffering.
I'll see you someday Ruth. Til then, keep praying for us.
I love you

To Troy, Holly and your spouses and children......
Ruth was a very special friend who always had time for each of us at Freeman, whether during happy or sad times.
The Lord has called Ruth to be by his side.
In Jesus name we pray........

When I think of Ruth what comes to mind is "Christian". She was such a strong believer, which she proudly wore on her sleeve. She will be missed, but I am so happy to know where she is and that someday we all see her again.

Troy and Holly,
I was so sorry to hear of the passing of your Mother. I know that she is in a much better place.
Aunt Ruth was an amazing lady with unstoppable determination. I admire the way that she endured her many hardships in life. She is a great example to all of us.
May God bless you and comfort you at this time and always.
With Love,
Your cousin

When I think of Ruth, a smile comes to mind, hers. She was always in the happiest spirit in person and over the phone. Ruth's positive outlook will always inspire me to do the same when I have bad situations. Ruth, I'm glad we were able to have our conversations, here and there. Will miss you!!!!

I shared my office with Ruth when she first started at Freeman. They didn't have any place for her then and I am so glad they didn't. She always told me I had a special place in her heart because my name was Holly, like her daughter. She was a kind and gentle person who I am so very glad came into my life. She will be missed dearly, but I know that she is now with the true love of her life! Rest in peace Ruth and know you will always be in my heart.

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
