I loved Ruthann with all my heart. She was like family to me all my life, as she was close friends with my mother and aunt since she was a little girl and worked with my grandmother, mother and aunt at the thermometer corporation. If you knew Ruthann well, you knew she loved the Lord with all of her heart and had such a kind, compassionate, loving spirit. I will forever treasure all of the memories we shared and all of the times we traveled together. While I grieve the fact that I just discovered her passing, I´m rejoicing that she is with Her Savior in Heaven and her loved ones. I can´t wait to see you again and give you a big hug. I love you forever my sweet aunt and friend, Missy
