Matt, I could not have said it better. She was a consistent and caring presence during my teen years. Thank you, Formichellas, for sharing her with us.

Dear Formichella Family, I knew Ruth as our choreographer in the Believers. She was not only a patient and talented dance teacher, but she also went out of her way as our costume designer and seamstress. I will always remember her as a kind, funny, and generous role model for all the kids who worked with her. Although Father John Morse pulled us all together, it was Ruth and Rose Ostrander who did the real work, and they were loved by everyone for it. My God's peace be with you all. Matt Withers
