Dear Glenda and Gary,
I had a dream about Aunt Ruth last night which prompted me to look for this. I am so sorry I didn't realize she had passed away. I loved her very much and she was such great support to my mom, Margy, when she passed away. You have both been such wonderful people to have cared for Ruth over the years. I know she and Mom are happy to be reunited.
With much love,
