I think of you Every. Single. Day, mom. Life feels so empty without you now. But I like to think youre watching over me and sometimes it really feels like you are...still in my head as the voice of reason, just like you were when you were here. You visit me often in my dreams. It hasnt gotten easier tho. I guess it never will...its been 5 years. You and dad would have been married 70 years yesterday! (May 7). I hope youre resting happily in paradise with dad, Jeanie, Stephen, Johnny, your mom & dad and other family & friends who have passed on. I love you and I miss you more than words can say!

Thinking of you today, like I do every day, and missing you more than words can say. It hasn't gotten any easier and I remember you told me it never really did for you when you lost your mother. I love you, mom and I'm trying to learn to live with the pain. I'm trying.....

Oh how I loved working with you, Ruth! You made every day special and you made everyone laugh. You taught me the most valuable lesson in life when I had taken on to much. You said, "If you can't say "No" and mean it, don't say "Yes" reluctantly. Your children have lost a dear and beautiful mother. It is hard to even process that they have lost both parents within a short time. God bless everyone. You were truly loved. Maureen Brown
