Louise, Gloria, George, Gayle, and Garth, I just learned of your mom's passing. She was like a second mother to me. As a young person, I was always at the farm. She taught me alot. I know you each will miss her. Just remember, as Christians we have the promise that we shall see her and your dad once again. I'll remember you in my prayers as you grieve. May God bless each one of you.
She always treated us as though we were one of her own. She yelled at us as she did you. I LOVED IT. I remember alot of good times. At the Shanty, going to Greene, swimming in the pond and then the pool, haying it, and in the winter sledding or ice skating. She had a wonderful laugh, I'll always rember.
My thoughts and love is with you.
Nancy.

We each have fond memories of Ruth. Dad remembers both your Mom and Dad for their hearts of gold. I know he holds many memories of his dear friends, Ruth and Otto. Cindy remembers helping with the wringer washer, hives and an oatmeal bath!
I remember her big smile and her yelling at us kids which never seemed very threatening. You could almost see the smile behind it. I
loved staying at your farm.
May wonderful memories help to get you through this difficult time.
With love and prayers,
Claude, Cindy and Claudia

Ruth was a great saint of AMBC. She was always there and always ready to pitch in. And she always kept a bit of "youth" even as she got older. Looking forward to seeing her again in heaven. May God be with all who are grieving her loss.
In Christ,
Melvin Foster

We will miss her and feel blessed to have wonderful memories from her presence. We will keep you all in our prayers.
