John,Joshua, Clifford,
One month ago, I lost one of my oldest friends, the person who introduced me to this odd, wonderful place, Utah, over 35 years ago. I still can't believe we'll never again share a hike, a beer, a good story. Ruth was an amazing woman in so many ways; my heart goes out to all of you at this sad time

Dear John,
Please know that I continue to pray for you, Clifford and Joshua and all of Ruth's friends and neighbors as well as keeping watch over her sister, Rachel, and her family here in Massachusetts. May you walk in love and gentleness, and find God's wisdom over time. Blessings,
Pastor Mary (The Rev. Mary F. Bettencourt)

Dear John, Joshua, and Clifford,
Words cannot express our sympathies for your loss of Ruth. We are so saddened. Your dear wife and mother touched our lives in her own with her talent, her friendship and special kindness. Her influence will not be forgotten.
Our love and prayers are with you.

John, Joshua, Clifford;
I was devastated by the news of Ruth's passing. She was such an amazing woman with such a big heart!! She always seemed to have a smile on her face. I have so many fond memories of her and your family! I know that she is with Robin and embracing her! I know how much she missed her and now she is with her again. Even though she is gone from us, she will never be forgotten. We will be reunited with her, Robin, and all our loved ones soon enough, that is God's promise. My thoughts and prayers are with you! Let me know if I can do anything for you.
Love,
AmberDee

I am so shocked and saddened to have found out about Ruth's death. I knew Ruth and John in the early to mid 1970's and I proud to own a loveseat of their design and making. I loved Ruth's artistry, humor, and peace-loving soul. I send John and the children my deepest sympaty. Nancy Benson Bryant

To the Sundbergs,
though I did not know Ruth, I have enjoyed much time with Clifford and I can see that a profound importance of family, ethics, conviction and individuality were instilled in his being,a gift from his loving parents and siblings. My thoughts and best wishes are with your family.

I am Ruth's first cousin, but I had not seen her in about 55 years. In the past year, we had re-connected and traded correspondence. My wife and I had hoped we could drive to Utah for a personal reunion. I am terribly sad that it did not happen. Ruth was unable to attend a Meeden family reunion we had in Illinois 14 months ago. Our thoughts and prayers are with John, Clifford, Joshua, Rachel, Ron and other family members during these difficult days. May God bless all of you and give you peace.

My love and heart felt sympathy to all of you. There us no doubt the Ruth loved her family with all her heart. God bless you all with peace of mind and heart. Sincerely, Norine C. Van Tassell Family

John, Joshua, and Clifford;
My deepest sympathy goes out to you and your family. I feel blessed to have known such a wonderful lady. She will be deeply missed on this earth, but I too can't help but think of what a joyous reunion is going on with Ruth and Robin. If we have the Faith that Ruth had, we should find comfort in knowing that this place is not our home, we are just a passing through.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
May the Love of Christ be with you.

I will remember Ruth with all of our fun times we spent with all of you together. I will remember how Ruth always made you laugh, smile and just took the worry out of life. I am blessed to have known Ruth my whole life, and how our families became so close. May her reunion with Robin be a joyful and peaceful event. My heartfelt sympathy goes to John, Joshua and Clifford. You are all one in a million. Ruth, you will be missed.

Sorry to hear of Shawn’s leaving us. I worked for Shawn and John at Walrus Woodworking in the mid-70’s for about a year, and learned a lot about wood, craft, skill, patience, and hard work by being there with them. I don’t think Shawn was a Christian at that time, and I rejoice to hear that she loved the Lord later in her life. My condolences and best wishes go to John and their children.

So sorry to hear of Ruth's passing. I have always admired her talent and compassion. Seems like just yesterday I was tending Clifford while she worked in the shop. May you be comforted in your sorrow.
