Ruth, I first met you when I was in junior high school. You and Pops lived across the street from Patrick Henry. Unknown at the time we would soon become family. You are my oldest niece's grandmother. That has been 40yrs ago. Soon after, you and Pops became very good friends with my mother. When mom became ill, you guys spent many days and nights with me and my sisters, Jackie & Curl, in the E.R.'s with mommy. The many visits, phone calls, the unconditional love that you so willingly gave,...

My Auntie Ruth.... I understand we are put on this earth for a limited amount of time, but when you have to let someone go, it's difficult. You will be deeply missed. Until we meet again...
