Elizabeth "E.J." Ruffing

Lizzy, I miss you and Respected all you did for us, we love you.

Elizabeth, I was so sad to hear you had passed away. Thank you for all the great knowledge I gained through you. You were such a great leader.

Oh Jody - once again you surprised us all. I thought my heart could not hurt more . . . but I was wrong. I know that Sam and you are in trouble now because Josephine was there to greet you. May be it is Heaven that is in trouble now. I will miss you and will see you again some day in the future. For now - I will celebrate your life to erase the pain I feel and be happy you were part of mine.

In the darkest time of my life, both of you stood in the gap for Joe and myself. Regardless of how tired you were or how many hours you had worked- both of you always had time for me. No matter how silly it sounded-you were always there right by my side. I will never forget that and I will always love you for it- Flo

Jody was such a joy to know and I feel I was blessed. She had her own style and such a sweet smile. She as well loved her family and would speak of you all often. Jody and Sam had so many more missions in life but was taken away, from us all. Her love was also with Merlin and Maddy who gave her peace in the evenings.I love you girl and enjoyed the time we had. My heart is heavy but it gives me comfort to know your a angel in heaven now. God Bless Jody and the Ruffing family.

Rest now may God give you peace.

I will miss seeing you and Sam on South Padre Island. I hope your family members will come here and call me in your place.
Love you always.

It won't be the first Saturday in May with my Derby hat on without you, my dear ,dear friend.
Miss you.
