Condolences to the Rovner Family and to all who were fortunate enough to be close to Ruth. As a Bell School colleague, I easily recall her natural teaching ability and creative ways with very young children who were profoundly deaf. May her blessed memory be eternal.

Our hearts broke the moment Aunt Ruthie left this world; it has definitely left an emptiness in our lives. Our love to our cousins.

Three years ago I walked into Ruth's life and the beautiful story began. We lived, laughed, loved, learned and cooked...and boy did we cook, from matza balls to spaghetti and meatballs, we were a match made in heaven. Ruth told me that God sent me to her, I believe it's the other way around, and she will live in my heart forever!

Such a sad sad loss for our family. Our Sweet sweet Aunt was a one of a kind dear.
Her smiles and giggles would light up a room... Her sweetness melted and stayed in your heart.
She will always be remembered and always always have a very place in my heart. She was the true definition of family .. We will all miss her so much but will always always Remember that sweetness.
Love to all the family.
