Just seeing Ruth was vey special. She was a great lady and her gentle,kind and attentive manner gave me strength and urged me to be like her. She was a power of example of what recovery is all about. God truly blessed the world by giving Ruth to her family and the community.
My thoughts and prayers are with you, Christine, and your entire family.
