Ruth was more then just a friend. She was my sister. I miss Ruth so very much. Bingo is not the same with out her. I still hear her calling my name as she walked thru the bing doors. Ruth was such a caring and loving person. Its not a day go by, that I don't think about her. Thanks for being in my life, Ruthie.......God bless you Phillip and Wanda, you had a wonderful mother.

Ruth was like a mother to me:) We all took care of one another. I will miss her everyday for the rest of my life. She had such a hearty laugh, and the brightest blue eyes that would light up the room. She was always very thoughtful, and put everyone else's needs and wants before her own. I love you Ruth and we will miss our Bingo Buddy, and best friend.
