Remembered Ruth 44 years As I lived next door to Billy Scott and ran around with Frank, Billy, Johnny Overstreet, Roger and Dennis. The kids were there every day Mikey, and Nikki good times I loved those kids and kinda felt like a big brother to them. Ruth at the end of the day would come and pick them up ! So sad how the blink of an eye and the tomorrow lead to this. RIP Ruth
