My deepest condolences to you and your family. A beautiful tribute to a lovely woman

I was and am so saddened to hear this. I am so glad I was able to know "Great Grandma T" and I am beyond grateful that Hilary, Bernie, and Julian got to call her family - they were very lucky indeed.

We are so very sorry for your great loss. Thank You for making to funeral accessible virtually. It was a very beautiful liturgy.

My first memory of Ruth (Mrs. Talbott to me back then, of course) was when we moved into the house next door on Dunckley Street, in the summer of 1970. Ruth's warm welcome reflected her interest in people, which I felt again 45-ish years later when I took my mother, Betty Fry, to an Alameda Tuesday gathering at the Talbotts' house. May her memory be a blessing to all the family.

I was saddened to learn of Ruth´s passing. She and Jack were acquaintances of mine, when we were members of the Madeleine Parish choir in the 1990s. Ruth always struck me as a gracious and kind lady. My condolences to Jack and the family.

My dear friend and brother in Christ Jack. God rest the soul of dear Ruth. I always so enjoyed sitting with you and Ruth at Serra Club meetings or special functions. She was a dear, warm, pleasant and lovely lady. I so feel your loss, having travelled this same path, as you know. I remember you and Ruth's condolences for me when I lost Gloria. I guess lost isn't a good word, for you and I both know that Our God has a place for us, and especially for our wonderful wives who served Him so well....

Ann, so sorry to hear of your Mother's passing. Please accept my condolences. Colonel Thomas

Mary Kay and family. Was so sorry to hear about your mom. My memories of her are of a woman who was dedicated, devoted to her family and faith, and always seemed so calm and put-together. A center of peacefulness in whatever storm might be brewing. I wish you peace and may you find comfort in all the wonderful memories stored up over a lifetime.
