I will sure miss seeing you out and about in Gibsons. I loved your gentleness and how you never forgot anyone who worked at the mill. Rest well lovely lady.

I sure miss Ruth at the entrance coming into the mill and dropping in at the reception desk to give her bags of coffee candies. She loved these candies because it was her fix for the day. If there was information to pass around the Port Mellon Mill - just tell Ruth which was a huge laugh for ones who knew her. She also loves putting dabs of Chinese Oyster Sauce on her fried eggs which I also enjoy.
Will surely miss her on the coast!!

We spent every Monday afternoon together for the past 10 years. Your fun sense of humour and your quick wit, made our friendship grow with ease quickly. Your friendship and love is a gift I will cherish forever. I miss you so much, it's still hard to believe your gone. You'll forever be in my heart. Thank you for sharing your life with me. It was an honour to work for you and be able to call you my friend. I love you.
