Sally and Jim,

Ruth is finally at peace and now you can be as well. Cherish the memories and know that now she is in a better place. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

It is with deep sadness I send my condolences to Marianne and Sally on the passing of Ruth. We go back many years from Easton High School to Kutztown University to Dr. Schinstine's office, where I last saw your mother not very long ago. My heart goes out to you. It has to be devastating to lose a mother. You both are to be commended for the excellent care you gave your mom. I will keep you in my prayers. Again, my deepest sorrow for your loss.

Marianne, Sally and family, my deepest sympathy in the passing of dear Ruth. She was a special lady with a great sense of humor. I worked with her for years at the Express. She will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

To the Gehris and Hutnik families, my thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Always enjoyed seeing and talking basketball with her. What a sweet lady, cherish the memories. God bless

I have special memories of Ruth at the YWCA...what a special lady. That smile that came on her face when we found something that made her happy...the piano...her Mets...some cookies! I will never forget her. My sympathy to Sally and Marianne and families.

Sally and family,
I was so sorry to read about the loss of your mother. My deepest sympathy.
