My dear Aunt Ruth was a funny, loving, generous person whom I will miss greatly. Always quick with a joke or funny story, she taught me and my siblings all the slightly improper childhood songs every kid should know when we were little. She was kind and generous with her time and her affection and the world was a better place for her having been in it. Much love to my cousin Terence and his family.
