John Albert "Papa John" Ruetten

My memories of John are many & very positive. John was first a friend, he became a friendly co-worker when he joined us at FoxColor. He was there for all and he brought a fun, "we can do it" attitude when we needed it most. He played a very important role in achieving success. I am forever grateful. Thank you John. I will miss seeing you at the Birthday Buddies luncheons. Beverly Armstrong

Dear John, I know you can read this on the other side of the Pearly Gates...and I also know you are there smiling down on us. Your smile was one of the many things that I loved about you. Your warm smile spread to your entire face welcoming all who met you! I am so very grateful that most of the remaining Birthday Buddies were able to be together to share a meal and catch up with one another on May 1st at Batley´s. And of course have our photo taken because "your" Joan always brought her...
